              Looks like Osteospermum jucundum , some class it as half-hardy but it came though last winter, same as always

                        As it’s already hot (22.4C) I thought that hot colors would be good. Normandy poppies with the black stain at the base of the petals and corn poppies without.

                            Flower of the day is my clematis viticella,it’s in a shady spot,wound round my buddleia. Clever how it’s used a petal to hold on to the branch,didnt notice that from the overall view of the plant -

                              My flower is the House leek/ Sempervivum.
                              I've been multiplying them from offshoots. One day I'll plant them.
