    Someone came round and asked me for some I.D.s on plants. I was able to do most but I don't know these.

    I'm sure the spotty leaved one should be easy, but not to me I'm afraid.:smile:

    The bottom two look like one of mine, a Digitalis ( Foxglove ) , not the common D. Purpurea another species but I'm at home now so I can't check it.

    Tricky ones Shiney

    1 . looks like its part of the mint family possibly a Agastache

    2 . Looks like a bedding plant Verbena

    3. Not sure reminds me of Perennial Lobelia

    4 . Really stumped me , its not a Digitalis . Ferruginea I've just been out and checked. Maybe one of the Leucanthemum

      I wasn't thinking of D. Ferruginea @Perki , as I don't have that one.

        Digitalis Grandiflora , if you can hang on I'm going over to my moms tomorrow, I'll have a look and take a photo.

        Thanks all.
        I rubbed the leaves but no smell.

        The spots are water marks :noidea:

        I've no idea of size of plants or how they are growing as those were just a few of the plants they brought round. I don't know the garden they're from. :scratch:

          4. (Young) Goldenrod? Checking the roots might help.
