We can't see the overall habitus, which would distinguish Hyacinth, Spanish Bluebell and English Bluebell, nor can we see the innards of the flowers, which, combined with, say Stace, allow us to do the same. I'd go for Spanish Bluebell. http://www.flickr.com/photos/treetop...n/photostream/ Try forget-me-not (Myosotis) - they're mostly not out round here, but I saw a few flowering today. There are other boraginaceous plants in flower at the moment (e.g. Omphaloides), and many of them have similar blue flowers, but your photo is giving me a Myosotis jizz. Thanks in anticipation! The "salad leaf flowers" are probably radish (Raphanus sativus). I think that the last snowdrop is actually a snowflake (Leucojum). I'd guess at Helenium for the orange "Knightshayes Flowers". -- Stewart Robert Hinsley http://www.malvaceae.info http://lavateraguy.blogspot.com |

Brilliant, thanks for browsing through! I have inklings on some of the plants but I don't have enough general knowledge yet... you've certainly helped me out! |

Sure? They look very much like Alkanet to me. Anyway, if they are, it is a floppy plant up to 1'6" high with hairy leaves up to 2' long and 6" across. It is locally common (and is common around Cambridge). Regards, Nick Maclaren. |

One second thoughts the "salad leaf flowers" could also be one of the rockets, such a s white rocket (Diplotaxis erucoides) or garden rocket (Eruca vesicaria). -- Stewart Robert Hinsley http://www.malvaceae.info http://lavateraguy.blogspot.com |

I'd go for Spanish Bluebell. I went for Spanish on the general sturdiness of the thing, also the bells seem to flare too much for English. http://www.flickr.com/photos/treetop...n/photostream/ Try forget-me-not (Myosotis) - they're mostly not out round here, but I saw a few flowering today.
