Hi @thriftybri , could also be Cephelaria . If it is beware , over time it can get 6/7' high. Planted in the right place it's a stunner. We have a lot of it around here as it escapes from gardens and self seeds.

Many thanks off to google I go

That's the one Clare I'll try them from seed next year . My normal sweetpeas have struggled as well this year lost about two thirds of them. Grown them for years with no real problems, so I don't know what the problem is .

Well done Sienna Hmmmm! Potentillas thrive here in hot baked spots and in heavier soils but I have grown them in all sorts of situations but full sun or plenty of sun is key I think to long flowering. Very adaptable shrubs. Summer flowering white shrubs look so good with most everything...

Thank's silver surfer and all, think you are spot on with Gypsophila Repens I think it is the one called compacta comes in pink or white, the red in the pot is a Petunia don't know how it got there. So glad I found this site.

Well done Woo, as far as I know lacewings are beneficial as they eat smaller insects.

Thanks all, I really appreciate your help. I've re-checked the area and there's none left and the dog is fine, if he had eaten any I'd definitely know about it by now.

Thanks Caroline, yes i will be able to find homes for a few of them i am sure next door will take a few of my hands,I moved it down by the pond early this year, one thing i didn't consider if any part of the plants is poisonous to fish i best have a read up about that thanks again.

Hi Silver surfer that was the only pic he took sorry but if it is that they're lovely plants running wild

Thanks S yes i think your right many thanks.

I've never found them to be a problem.

'Wet' is pretty normal for Wales. Yes, you're right about the big dome in the centre (the Great Glasshouse): Great Glasshouse | National Botanic Garden of WalesThere's a LOT to the gardens in general, always something new to discover as it covers a huge amount of land. Well worth a visit...

... and I have i t's rellie Iochroma cyanea 'Plum Paradise' ...

It`s that little division on the leaves that takes me back to the carrots, and reading back - that`s what @Silver surfer said in the first place (sorry maestro I missed it)

Well actually Pete, I had three of these things out front, and I took a spade to them to get rid. I put gloves on, but one plant was quite big and brushed on my arm.... didn`t feel anything at first and thought no more of it, but now, in spite of warm water and soap, there`s a blotchy patch...
