Thanks, Sue and Floydie. The white Triteleia is soooo different to 'Queen Fabiola', it was a bit of a let-down in a way. You could walk past them and not even notice them.

The trouble with looking at all your colourful flowers is that I keep seeing one I want!! What I need is more space lol Peony that Hypericum 'Hidcote' looks fab, will it grow in dry shady spot and how long does it flower? Geranium you've got some lovely colour blending. I have 'Queen Fabiola' amongst T roses. I think I'll move them to a spot of their own for next year.

Here are some photos. from my garden. Hemerocallis 'Catherine Woodley' Senecio polyodon Geranium 'Stormchaser' ambling through Diascia 'Ruby Fields' A mingle in the front garden - I love Origanum 'Kent Belle'. It's with Erigeron Karvinskianus, Lavandula stoechas, Geranium 'Jolly Bee' and a blue Nemesia. Triteleia 'Queen Fabiola' in the corner bed. Flowers in the top border. And a flower I haven't grown before - Triteleia hyacinthoides. Your pale hemerocallis is Catherine Woodbury, Geranium.

Merlin, that Hypericum will be happy just about anywhere and would be just fine in a dry shadey spot, i've had them in just about every situation there is and they've always done well !

I don't know what's happened here. The pics I was looking at have changed So my comment doesn't make sense. Probably I am doing something wrong - I'm always doing something wrong lol

Agastache are one of the flowers i grow to pick because they last for ages in a vase.

I can tell you what it is - it's Stachys monieri 'Pinkie'. How do I know? Because I have one in my garden. Not a clump like Peony's, but definitely the same plant. What lovely photos Peony! Thank you Geranium, I knew someone would identify it ;D Now I can get another one

Merlin, my 'Hidcote' grows in deep shade, under a large conifer, so its dry as well. It flowers over several weeks, and then often has a few more flowers later on, and being evergreen it's useful for screening - in my garden it hides the Council compost bin
