alright, petal?

Miscellaneous photos of things in the garden.


Plumbago (Thanks to grapevine forumites for helping with identification!)


Weigela florida "Verweig" (minor black) being invaded by Carex buchananii


The grasses are- Pennisetum "red bunny tails", Carex Buchananii and the variegated one is Phalaris arundinacea picta


The plastic planthouse: top shelf - a dozen cuttings of cistus purpurea, below that - violas intended as bedding plants for when I get the other planters ready.


Hebe - don't know variety


Maybe a spiraea ("bridal wreath"? Grapevine forum again!) - usually get masses of these flowers in early spring. I think the shearing it got a couple of weeks ago might have persuaded this cluster to appear.


Dahlia "Suffolk Punch"


Aster novae angliae "Alma Potschke" & visitor


Dahlia "Passion"


Dahlia - don't know variety. It's a small, bushy one.


Caryopteris "summer sorbet"
