I was hoping it was a sloe tree to make more sloe gin, the tree it was under is very old and it's getting to the time it mite end up being fire wood

Fabulous! Thank you

Thanks for the id, Bilbo - buy you a pint next time your up this way!

Yes it could well be that one, a dogwood as I found out, indigenous to North America. Must be self-seeded as the people who had the house before us did zero gardening apart from grass cutting.

At last, I have remembered the other link ...

I thought it wasnt ox eyed daisy as I have that growing in my garden too. The daisies in question only grow to about 6 inches. I have them growing everywhere all of a sudden and I have no idea how they got there. Also is this the Chamomile that I can make tea out of?

Sisyrinchium striatum maybe?

I can't really see it but could it be some type of groundsel? Senecio cambrensis, possibly?

I like the flower, Astrantia it's a new one on me. Is it easy to grow ?

Aqualegia's are beautiful and not just the more usual blues, whites, pinks and purples and all shades inbetween. but also.... And best of all, these four and several more, all comes from the same seed head! I was lucky enough to be given a seed head a couple of years ago, got loads...

1) Ditto 2) possible dog rose (before fading with age/sun). 3) Ditto. Cheers, Tony.

Currently in flower now, has roughly 5 petals on each bloom, quite large too. Thanks everyone

I did ID it, I can't remember off-hand. It's also another that's in my ever-increasingly useful flower book... I'm not the best gardener, a bit of a beginner

Thanks one and all. Very much obliged. John

Thanks val, yup, that seems what it is, tyvm!

Many thanks lolimac

Thanks, guys.

You can grow them no problem & harvest the seeds from the dried pods. You must NOT however try to extract the sap from the pods.

I'm sure I've been weeding it out somewhere
