    The name of these flowers has gone clean out of my brain Its driving me mad, such well known flowers and so obvious, but it escapes me. For some reason I kept thinking aubretia but they're not, I don't believe ... nor alyssum ... anyway I hope you like the slideshow and music, the flowers were photographed in my garden today.

      Hi Simon,
      Original idea, would rather have pics though as videos are hard to get on my phone ( only on GC though ! ).

      The plants are Saxifrage. Looks like the one known as " Mossy Saxifrage " , but I don't know the proper name sorry. Someone should be able to tell you though :)

      Many thanks - as soon as I saw the answers I could have kicked myself! This site is so very helpful for this sort of thing.
      Sorry I could not add a simple photo, GC won't accept my photos and I'm not sufficiently technical to reduce the sizes etc.
