    Starting with the front garden, can you help me identify what I have? (Some may be weeds!)

    The second picture in your second post - the wee one at the bottom reminds me of a ceanothus? I know next to now't though, so it is probably something entirely different :snork:

    EDIT - the wee flowers in the first one might be a variety of aquilegia? Again, just a guess.

    FURTHER EDIT - the purple flowered one in the second from last picture reminds me of lavender

    Thanks.

    The leaves on the second one are softer than a ceonothus. Could always be a different variety I guess?

    The little flowers, have done some research, and on the left are bleeding heart. Not sure what the ones on the right are, so I'll look up the one you suggested.

    The purple does look a lot like lavender, but doesn't have the scent, and the flowers are different. :huh:
