If you do want to grow Caesalpinia Clematis, they will benefit from a warm water soak for 24 hours to swell the seed and aid germination. Once they start to grow they will need pinching out as they can become spindly. If grown in a heated greenhouse they can flower in two years.

It's Acacia Longifolia and grows everywhere in Turkey and Cyprus, like Buddleia it even grows out of walls and drains.

Good stuff...........all correct,I think this kind of exersize does the old brain good,just to refresh our memories...........well mine anyway. Butchers Broom....... Ruscus Aculeatus. Aucuba japonica. Skimmea japonica.

If thats a recent picture and taken in Edinburgh, I would doubt thats its privet - it just looks to be in too good a condition for this time of year

Well, Googled it, and whilst it is very very pretty, and I think I need to get some for our front garden lol .. it's not the same thing.This is so weird isn't it! I do find it odd that I manage to have something beautiful in my garden, yet have no idea what it is or where it came from lol....

I would say Bay as well :thmb:

Thanks guys The winner is........ FLINTY :cl-p: Just checked the link, and thats the ones. Love poppies too but not had any success with them, thery were slugged to death I knew you brainy lot could help :gnthb:Off to write it down now so I dont forget again lol

I will settle for pink mini cascade. My friend used to have them in baskets under her car porch and every year they put on a wonderful show. Must remember to post some more pics during the summer when they are if full bloom. robert

Does look odd though!

You are very welcome - glad to be of help

Just got back here, and I agree that looks like the one I saw.

You could try trailing Petunias, Easywave, Shockwave and Tidalwave can all reach 3ft in length but that may not be long enough for you.

I wonder what part of evolution that flower bypassed to produce those most odd shapped petels? Sure is different robert

You've got a lot of salady stuff there. With mixed salads it makes it easier to wait for a bit of growth, until you can spot some sort of uniformity, you'll soon get your eye in for the salads.

Many thanks everyone will put out in the spring and take pic

Having seen samphire for sale in the fish shop on dungy, I tend to say its not.I also dont think its seakale. To me the parsley/ carrot route, looks more likely.

I think I may of Found out what the 2nd plant is but I'm not sure it looks simmliar to two genus in the bromeliaceae family: Portea and Ursulea

Thank you to everyone who replied, for the help in identifying the plant in the photo, my wife saw it & wanted one for the garden. Also many thanks for the link providing detailed information on it, very useful.Much appreciated. Ian

No name under the plumeria yet though:D

Your most welcome, thanks for the chance at id-ing, not my strong suit and it gives me a chance to practice.
