Identification Area

Not sure about the first one but I think the third one is Psuederanthemum Atropurpureum or a similar cultivar, there are many.

Once the escalonia has finishe flowering, you can be quite brutal pruning it if needs be, its very fast growing.

OIC peanut plant:D

Naomi, the Berberis and Senecio can be cut back fairly hard now to get them under control. The Phormium is made up of lots of little plantlets, so you can just dig out as many as you like to reduce the bulk.:thumb: What you dig out, of course, can be distributed amongst your family and friends.:D

I hope I get newts when I do my pond

Looks like a Verbena to me .... but they are perennials here ....

Hmmm, i'll try not watering it til it's dried out a little and see if it improves any! Cheers for the info!

But there such lovely plants! and beautiful autumn colour

No problem:thumb:

Forgot to mention ... it has fruits on it which resemble small raspberries! Dead chuffed now because after Googling images I've found out you can eat the berries! Kousa Dogwood ......Thanks Guys!

Looked them up on the web. Commonly called "Marguerite's" That name I am familiar with, but usually heard it when listening to ladies referring to bouquets.

I`ll have to bring them in for winter then. They`ll be very upset-they love it under my astibes. To the bathroom for them then after October.

Hi all, Thanks for the suggestions everyone and thankyou kalmia, for getting my pics to display properly. Sorry I've been slow to respond, too much work this week, I fell asleep last night. The photinia looks a distinct possibility, although the red leaves are less pronounced than most of...

Thanks for the answer to the original post.You really are all a wealth of plant knowledge.Cheers.

I would use a 50 50 mix of multi purpose compost and John Innes no3.:thumb:

Well it isn't a Phygelius....

Looks like a weed to me Garth, heh,heh:D

Sorry Glenw missed the Solanum type at the end of your post :thumb: Must stop my speed reading ! So in 1 hour and 4 minutes both identified. Thats perfect.....must track one down at a more reasonable price. Thanks LOL for the confirmation on type and Kedi-gato that its by the garden...

here it is atrig, its an abutilon (sorry mods, i know the photo's too big but I can't modify)

I've actually seen it growing on motorway banks along with evening primrose. Not sure if it was scattered seed or its just escaped, but it looks good, I think.
