      it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

      • My flower is Buddleia. Bit of a love/hate relationship here! I try to cut off the flower heads before they set seed and spring up everywhere I don't want them.
        Butterflies and bees like it so its not all bad.

        • I am posting tomorrow's flower of the day now as I am off to Oban in the morning, so my flower is a small hardy fuchsia, it came from Calzean Castle where it was hybridised, but again I can't get to the name just nowClick image for larger version

            • Things went a bit pear shaped yesterday so there’s are two flowers one for yesterday and one for today. Japanese anemone, pretty but invasive and another ‘l don’t know what it is’ but it survives in a very dry situation.

              • My Flower is this little Spanish Daisy/Fleabane (Erigeron karvinskinsus or summat?)
                Seeds everywhere in little cracks in the paving and walls. I like it as it softens the hard edges..The flowers change from pink to white - or is it the other way round.

                  My flower is hydrangea “Vanilla Fraises” - best it’s been for 10 years after pruning to six inches last autumn .

                    • I’m sticking with the Hydrangea theme, a Lacecap, not the best specimen our ground is too dry for then really.

                      • My flower is this little Sedum with its wishy washy flowers that the bees and butterflies like.
