My lily don't know what it's called it's the one that has all of it's leaves die back and then flower stalks come every few days until the whole patch is done flowering and leaves grow back again. I know I need to get a lot of weeding done ;D but like clovers so I leave them alone That's lovely jrae, very pretty, is it scented too? I'd leave the clovers too, I like them & a lot of bees love clovers. Thanks Sue, it's scented but there are usually a lot of bees in the yard so I don't get to sniff flowers a lot

Chilli plant flowering What kind of chili is it Steve? Haven't seen purple chili flowers before the stuff I grow usually just has white, yellow or some orange flowers.

A few of the black fruited types (some later turn red) have purple flowers, this one I think may have hybridised in the greenhouse as the fruits were like nothing I had grown before

Love the Lily, Lesley! Do you know its name please? Your Astrantias are a bit ahead of mine - won't be long, though.

Rachel looks good. I think your Primula is a lovely colour. I wonder how far up it will grow. It is a Primula isn't it Grindle?

One of our rarer wild flowers, Night Flowering Catchfly (Silene noctiflora). The scent is strong at night though as these are flowering at work.....I don't get to smell them! Flower petals roll up too during the morning and are fully open only at night. These are already going to sleep for the day. Must sow some seed of it next year!
