Hypericum - don't recognise the species. Agreed Hypericum. Thought Tutsan at first (and from leaf colour in the background), but berries are too elongated. Ditto Rose of Sharon. Are there any other widely grown Hypericums of that size in the UK? |Filename: DSCN7061.JPG | |Download: http://www.gardenbanter.co.uk/attachment.php?attachmentid=10130| Rowan, probably the native Sorbus aucuparia (the berries look a bit on the crimson/pink side, but I'll blame the camera - at least I've had trouble with correct rendition of reds in digital cameras.) If it's not that, it could be one of the pink berried ones which start quite dark red and fade to pink or white. Leaves not right for S vilmorinii else I'd go for that. -- Kay |

Ditto Rose of Sharon. Are there any other widely grown Hypericums of that size in the UK? You see cultivars with a Tutsan like habit in the garden centres every now and again. Google finds me pictures of Hypericum FLAIR(TM) (which are Tutsan cultivars, but don't have sufficiently elongated berries). Digging a bit further gets me to Hypericum x inodorum 'Elstead' which is commonly grown, and does look a reasonable match. I've seen hybrids of South American origin on sale, but none of the names in Plantfinder ring a bell, so I can't offer images for comparison. |Filename: DSCN7061.JPG | |Download: http://www.gardenbanter.co.uk/attachment.php?attachmentid=10130| Rowan, probably the native Sorbus aucuparia (the berries look a bit on the crimson/pink side, but I'll blame the camera - at least I've had trouble with correct rendition of reds in digital cameras.)

Yes, I think 7588 is Sweet Yarrow!?
How about 7644, the one with yellow flowers and seed pockets/ pods? H |

Where are you gardening? Do you not recognise a Dahlia because it is unfamiliar to you in your gardening area? -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon |

I think I know how to differentiate dahlia now. Some of them look like chrysanthemums to me... |

They are relatively easy to differentiate, if you look at the stems and leaves. Those of dahlias are fleshy and a bright green [apart from the dark leaved forms, of course], whereas chrysanthemum stems look woody and the leaves are a duller green. Also, chrysanthemum has a very distinctive smell which dahlias don't have.

Another reason why I get confused between dahlia & chrysanthemum:- We treat dahlia as a type of chrysanthemum in Chinese language. Dahlia = "Dali chrysanthemum" in Chinese; we also call it "Indian peony". Chrysanthemum = "chrysanthemum" in Chinese; which we use it to make chrysanthemum tea that has a stronger taste/ smell than camomile tea. By the way, we also treat camomile as a type of chrysanthemum in Chinese - it's known as "sweet chrysanthemum"!! So I wonder, if dahlia is edible... |
