Spotted, yesterday, at Tremenheere Sculpture Garden, Cornwall. I am pretty sure it is an Olearia, but I can't get a handle on the species. Crushed...
Well, it appears I was wrong. I've just heard back from the head gardener. Apparently it is Enkianthus cernuus, and was sourced, in 1936, from K...
After a fair amount of digging, I believe it to be a white cultivar of Enkianthus campanulatus.
Sure looks like an Oriental Lily. I suppose it could be one of the willowherbs, but I don't recognise it. None of the spp I see in Cornwall are...
Hi, On the Levels. Now I am even more confused - not difficult to confuse me though.:dunno: I know Iris pseudacornis, as the yellow flag iris or...
Thanks, Dove. I did know it was an umbellifera, but had never seen angelica before, apart from the green, preserved stuff my mother used in baking.
Thanks punkdoc I think you are right. I wonder which spp. There appear to be 2/3 with white flowers.
Again in Trelissick Gardens, Cornwall. I have seen many different species but not this one. A good 5'-6' tall. [ATTACH] Stem [ATTACH] Foliage...

Saw this in Trengwainton Garden, Cornwall, the other day.Any ideas? [ATTACH][ATTACH] [ATTACH] I forgot to attach this showing the leaves....

Thanks guys. As I suspected, a taxonomic nightmare, so I'll just file as Polygonatum spp. @Silver surfer. I knew that there were a multitude of...
See today, 03/05/24, Glendurgan Gardens, Cornwall. I believe there are 2 native spp and garden hybrids, plus 60+ spp globally.. Any chance of...
One trick I have used is to get a largish strong poly bag, stuff as much of the foliage as you can into the bag and add equal parts glyphosate 360...
I had read that if you cut the top off after the flowers finished, they can reshoot. Nobody seems to had told it, that it was being a bit...
About time for an update. The Phal is still sitting with 6 flowers that opened in January. 3 months now. I noticed, yesterday, what appears to be...
I use Garden Wildlife Direct, just like @fairygirl
Thanks guys I guess I'll buy a different mix once my current 25k runs out.
I have one of these multiarm feeder stations, and get quite a few nice visitors, but, I suspect, not as many as I could get. The reason is the...
Thanks. That looks a much better match.
