The first looks like some sort of lily - taken in June in a garden in
Wiltshi

It's one of the Alstroemerias



The second, some sort of Dianthus - are these commonly known as
carnations or pinks?

Taken in the same garden in July.


Looks rather like Dianthus barbatus Noverna. They're usually known as pinks.

Any help much appeciated!
