Des Thanks. Is it a type of herb? I got the picture from a herb garden but I couldn't find its sign/label. Do you know know the rest? Thanks! H My father grew them and used them for winter decoration, he used to have to dig a bit up every year to slow the spread! when I moved I took some, but they didn't like their new home!! Inside the 'lantern' is a small orange edible fruit, sharp tasting , some restaurants use them as an edible 'aside' Des |

Unknown Plants (Do you recognise them?)
Aren't these lists getting a bit long? Maybe a few good gardening
books should be on your Christmas present list. Oh well since I've got a fresh cup of coffee on the go: 1) Salvia splendens - could be any one of many hybrids*. 2) Abutilon hybrid. 3) Cuphea lanceolata 'Firefly'. 4) Lantana camara - could be 'New Gold', 'Lucky Yellow' or any other yellow since the flowers aren't open. 5) Salvia splendens - see *. 6) Salvia patens. 7) Caryopteris x clandonensis could be 'Heavenly Blue'. 8) Salvia microphylla or greggii hybrid - need a better shot. 9) Centranthus ruber 'alba'. 10) Coreopsis lanceolata hybrid - need a much better shot to discern which one. 11) Sedum spectabile. 12) Potentilla - probably fruticosa or one of its hybrids. 13) Nicotiana sylvestris. 14) Dianthus chinensis 'heddewigii' hybrid. 15) Where d'at go? 16) Astrantia major - possibly 'Temptation'. 17) Echinacia purpurea - one of the 'Butterfly' hybrids. 18) Penstemon 'Osprey' - although colour looks a bit off. 19) Limonium [Statice] sinuatum[a]. 20) Physalis franchettii. 21) Scaevola aemula. 22) Coreopsis verticillata. 23) Gladiolus callianthus. |

I got 18 of them, but not down to variety, I think that Dave Pool deserves a Prize for such detailed answers, at least a good bottle of Malt. Asking for ident of 2 or 3 is fair enough but a list like that is almost a case of Spam. David Hill Abacus Nurseries |

Asking for ident of 2 or 3 is fair enough but a list like that is almost a case of Spam. Or at least a severe case of laziness? I got about half of them, but didn't feel disposed to answer. It's not as if this is the first time... How did we identify plants in the days before computers? We searched through books - or that's what _I_ did! Some of us still do! I use both mechanisms, depending .... Regards, Nick Maclaren. |
