Yes, mine were quite about 5ft and several years old when I lost them.

Thanks for trying folks, i will let them grow on a bit and see what comes of them and repost a newer pic. The plant in the 3rd and 4rth pic seems to grow at some rate and has deep roots and likes to spread.

If seeds develop then the pods will split open to reveal a bright red interior and shiny black seeds. Time scale is hard, but certainly not before the end of June.

Thanks Fens. I can barely make out what it is from the pic as it's so bad. I'll suggest to her it's an Arbutus.

Ahh, thank you. I might be digging it up then.

It's Ajuga reptans 'Burgundy Glow' common name 'Bugle'. It is quite a nice little filler plant.

Haha.....created a bit of a debate here I see other have it in their lawns too. I put Evergreen 4 in 1 down a few weeks ago and is now all over my grass. They weren`t there before I don`t think Just spent an hour getting rid of them all (including the moss) from the soil and a dressing of...

I grow the plant, just never heard it given that name.

Ah thanks very much for such a quick response.

Syringa vulgaris alba. Comon name lilac.

I've never tried taking cuttings from my Kerria but it has spread of its own accord, I think it suckers, so I would guess that you could find some of those and plant them up separately from the main plant. Mine is growing in almost continuous shade with other shrubs and seems perfectly happy to...

a quick look around google and it seems to be "cornus alba elegantissima red-twig dogwood". so TVM lolimac.

sorry ziggy i seem to have posted this thread twice, the pics are in the other post.

Thanks guys, you're ace!

Thank you, that certainly looks like it!

No1. is Kerria also known as Butterball a-a

clueless, i too love borage, it lasts ages, has beautiful flowers and attracts bees to my garnden. i started off with only one a couple of years ago, it came in a mixed seed pack my daughter had from b&q we didnt know what it was and at the rate it grew (it was bigger than her at one point)she...

I thought the last picture looked like philadelphus too. You can cut them right back although I agree that isn't usual, I did it through desperation one year after several branches were damaged and I was amazed at how well the plant grew back.

Thanks for your replies! Symphytum definitely rings a bell. Thanks again.
