    These two lovely chaps sprung up in some shrubs this year and not sure where they came from. So two questions, what are they and when/if can I move them? They're in amongst a large shrub/bush and could do with a more prominent spot.

    Thank you!

    1.. Aquilegia aka Columbine Granny's Bonnets.. Self seed everywhere if left but lift in Autumn if you want to move it.. Perennial

    2. Solomon's Seal.. Likes dappled sunlight and is a woodland type plant.. I would probably leave that one if it is happy.. Move after flowering and die-back or Autumn if you have to.. Perennial.. :thumbsup:
