So right peony. @hywel's hellebore is a very bright pink and there are lots of blooms on the plant.

My Sophora has never had so many flowers on it! Sophora so good Groan! Steven! I've never seen one of those Geranium , I know it's not really anything like it but at first glance it reminds me a bit of a mahonia , very pretty.

The flowers are much bigger, and hang down as you can see, SueA. I don't think you could grow a Sophora 'oop north' unless you have a very sheltered corner.

Not here either Geranium. It is a shame when it is so pretty.

Thank you peony and Cherry I have another self seeded one which is cream with a green stripe on the petals. It's rather slug-eaten though

Here's a pretty white heather. It is many years old and flowers well every winter, in a pot. It's been full of flowers since the new year

Your heather is lovely Hywel I can't grow them in my alkaline soil but I ought to try growing one in a pot as you do.

Thank you It would be nice if you could grow one in a pot, especially a winter flowering one. My soil is rather on the acid side, so I have a few in the ground as well as some in pots. I like to be able to move them about ...

Acer 'Orange Dream' Fritillaria 'Crown Imperial' (minus the 4 LB's I found on it!) Euphorbia - one that self-seeded from E.wulfenii

Oh heck peony , I'll have to look out for the lily beetles here then! Your acer looks more advanced than my purpureum one but then mine is quite neglected!
