There are many named Rhodo's some are huge shrubs/trees with enormous blousy flowers.... others are neat compact dwarfs. Your one may be Rhododendron Ptarmigan...a slow dwarf one. Enjoy it it looks so very happy. If you want to move it it can be done at any time ...just make sure you dig an ...

Kind of thing you often see in garden centres sold as "air plants" bromeliads that grow as epiphytes.

Definitely looks like strawberry plants from here.When you move them elsewhere, be cautious about taking the grass with them

Whoops! I've only just got back to this thread .As I said, right at the beginning, it appears to look like Iris (from the look of those in our garden) and I think it looks more like it now that I've seen the roots.

I wanna see when the flowers start fighting

Thanks everyone (sorry for delayed response, the notification didn't come to my email )I'm trying to find decorative but low maintenance and hardy flowers and plants to do a planter for my dad's grave I'm only able to go once a month as he's buried back "home" which is 3 hours away. I want...

Looking at the dead leaves it could, possibly, be Iris sibirica.

Its amazing how these seeds spread, I do have a couple of Papaver's growing but are about 15 feet away from where the new seedlings are.Thanks for you help

Just call me stumpy.lol

No mention of JCB hire. More a suggestion of 'elbow grease' to keep the costs down.Keep us updated on how the treatment works!Kaskara has been discontinued by the manufacturer but is still currently available, while stocks last.

Hi Pete,Thanks for that, I think others have also come to the same conclusion as well

1. Possibly Luzula sylvatica?Luzula sylvatica - Wikipedia2. Corylus avellana....common name Hazel. Your pic shows the male flowers or catkins.corylus avellana catkins - Google SearchLook carefully for tiny red spidery bits...these are the female flowersCorylus avellana female flowers...

Don't know what the spots on the flowers are but I can see the new leaves coming.

Oh Calathea is happy again

Liverwort is a strange species of foliage. You could spray it with concentrations of weedkiller that would kill everything else, yet it shrugs it off and seemingly laughs in your face.The product @Silver surfer recommends will do the trick.

Best of luck with the Sedge. Never been allowed to flower in our garden for 20 years and still we get seedlings.

I can imagine that did put a bit of a damper on things!

Thanks @shiney the problem is that I hacked at it as it had turned into an overgrown monster. I hope I haven't killed it....the jasmine that is

I'm not quite sure what you mean by reboost compost and what has the compost been treated with. As Silver Surfer says you can buy mycorrhizal fungi from garden centres or online. You can get different "flavours" depending on what you want to grow. Home made compost is full of beneficial fungi...

Once again, many thanks, spot on! Now i know what it is i will try to grow it. i spend some time abroad every year so have time to experiment with plants i cant grow in the UK. Cant wait for next summer! thanks again, i knew there would be knowledgeable people out there, thank you...
