I saw these flowers a couple of days ago in the Dean Garnier gardens
next to Winchester cathedral. Please can someone help me identify them
and if you can provide a url reference about them that is even better..

The first one looks a bit like Star of Bethlehem - but the front of the
petals is slightly yellow and the back tinged with
pink.http://www.mrtlfrm.demon.co.uk/garden/deang01.jpg


Dunno; sorry


Copuld be one of the small tulips. Google 'Tulipa clusiana' - I don't
think it is that one, but you'll see where I'm coming from.

The second looks a bit like the Cosmos family, but I can find a picture
of a Cosmos that looks like
it.http://www.mrtlfrm.demon.co.uk/garden/deang02.JPG


Pulsatilla in the buttercup family (Rannunculaceae)

Agreed
