The Cardoon is the wild variety of Artichoke so basically they are the same thing.
Hemerocallis have been eaten in the Far East for a very very long time. I tried them, but to me they have no distinguishing taste. The pictures...
I knew I had seen it somewhere. It is Dietes bicolor. Not an Iris as such, but in the same family.
Iris have three petals called standards and three petals called falls. Now that is fairly constant for all Iris, even if for some of them you have...
Certainly an Irid of some description, but which one is more of a problem. Need to look through the book!
It looks like A Oenothera (Evening Primrose) but which one?
Reduce the number of choices, if it is 12 inches to 18 then it is classed as a Dwarf Bearded Iris.
Sorry Frank, been off line with no compter since Monday. Had it checked out at supplier and nothing wrong with the machine or the Modem. When I...
We are in the depths of North West Shropshire. Spoke to the last provider on our list this morning and no go. The speed this morning was 338...
I like to look at the questions posed for Plant identification and help whenever I can. Sadly with our present Dialup 24kb per second Internet...
There are a lot of new ones coming on to the market at the moment. We have a yellow one. W. middendorffianum, very beautiful. We have another one...
It looks like Azorina procumbens to me. They can be a bit of a seed weede, but I rather like them.
Like apples they fruit on spurs formed when growing branches are cut back, so you may get somw extra fruit. A ripe Quince is a wonderful air...
Almost certain it is Erodium manescavi, but ......Defintely in the geranium family though.
Makes me feel ill just thinking about it. Empathy coming his way. No motorcycling for a while then!
Flowers are the wrong type for Honesty. That has ones with four petals in a cross shape. This looks more like a member of the mint family, say...
The leaves you can see in the picture are 'greyish'. Those of sedum acre and its different forms are green with occasionally white markings....
By the looks of the leaves I would say it was Sedum spathulifolium possibly Cape Blanca, but there are others like it, differning only in the...
Top one is a Campanula rather than a Gentian. The second one looks rather like a Sedge rather than a grass. Are the leaves three cornered?
Sorry, but I think that is Sisyrinchium striatum. Quite pretty, but can be a bit of a seed weed if happy.
