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!

The second pic doesnt show if the flowers are all on one stem or are
several flower stems together. if one stem then it's a Sweet William.
