Identify those perennials, 2

More...


6. Eryngium Planum


7. Cranesbill, 'Johnston Blue'


8. Sidalcea 'Party Girl'


9. Echinops Ritro


10. Rudbeckia 'Goldsturm'

 

6 looks like cyclamen

7 perennial geranium

 

Just to point out, I know what they all are...

I'll post the results in a day or so.

 

I realised that!!! Unless you have had a bang to the head today and are asking people to remind you what is in your own perennial bed?? :hehe:

 

Dear me, these are tricky:

6. I think it looks like cyclamen too
7. Not sure, might be geum
8. Looks familiar - malva perhaps?
9. Echinops
10. dunno!

Off to look at photos of plants on Google images.............

 

6 Cyclamen like leaf
7 Looks like a a bad attack of the Buttercups. :D
8 Sidalcea
9 Circium
10 no clue

 

This is rather fun! I'll post the answers a bit later on today...

 

Wow...! What an exercise! :thumb: All is guesswork from me, as I'd have to wait one or two weeks to be able to check the one or two I have... Meanwhile, it just occured to me that it would be a lot of help to put a tape measure or a coin (or anything else that we can compare to) next to the plant so we could see the size of their leaves...

- Looks like some kind of Viola
- Geum perhaps
- Alcea, but definitely a Malvaceae, my Sidalcea is very far behind, although looks very convincing
- Cirsium - nooo, Cynara? perhaps, I had C. card. from seed, then froze them - Echinops, most likely, never had one
- No idea although those purplish veins do ring a bell

And now for the first round... I must be a moron but couldn't find it in the first place. BTW, do you know why the ID section I just discovered today is not located here, under the general gardening page?

 

And these lot.

Buttercup? I think not, humph!!

 

Well Done SussexG - my head is still reeling.

I picked leaves from three different hardy Geraniums in my garden to compare with no 7, which Victoria Plum got absolutely right. And it still looked more like a buttercup. :D
