    I always make sure I have cash ( notes and coins ) to hand - it's the best way for the local egg and veg. places which only use "honesty boxes". How does one define "legal" beggars as opposed to "illegal" ones ? Donating to registered local charities is the safest way I find- usually at least.

    Could anyone identify this plant please?

    Thank you everyone. That seems to be unanimous! Looks an attractive flower and plant so I'll leave it alone.
