Nope. But I think there must be something in the soil!

heehee, it stood up well to footballs being dropped on it in my mums garden so when she was getting rid of hers I aquired a lump of it. The kids seem to think that my front garden is a playpark and regularly stand on it, and so far it's not had any damage

Katherna variegation in a plant is an anomaly in the genes and is a sought after trait by gardeners,actually the green bit is the more healthy bit as it has a greater ability to produce energy for the plant than the variegated bit that lacks chlorophyll, if you don't want the plant to revert...

In sun as a ground cover in an area not traveled but need something with low maintance. I have some like that growing around the vacant areas among my heaths and heather.

Nope think you got something different there forget-me-not, but dont ask me what LOL:D

Oh and the second photo of the first row could be a Hydrangea or also known as Hortensia and the first photo of the second row is a tossup between a Rudbeckia or an Echinacea although both have the common name of Cone flowerEvery time I look I find a plant I know:D

Yeah, the roots stink just like acacia. So, its still there. I seem to remember some largish trees near where the boat docks, maybe just one or two. So youve just come back eh?

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...
