Garden And Gossip Forums

Still finding things to surprise and delight me in the garden.
Pure chance that these are growing together.

And still they keep coming.
Has saved me a fortune in not buying rocket.

Dianthus starting to go over but love the dark red

Love this dark nasturtium

Fuchsia, no idea if I can get this though the winter. It certainly hasn’t grown much, but then it’s not had anything resembling a summer. (forever autumn).

Love the Sedum - cut every one of mine!

I didn’t realise you could use autumn joy sedum as cut flower. I’ve got some in pot, waiting for their new home to be ready.
What’s the red leafy shrub.

Cotinus is one of my favourite red leaved shrubs Plus the autumn hues of Rhus Typhina (Staghorn Sumac) are gorgeous. (Sorry to digress)

I like physocarpus/nine bark as a red shrub
- unfortunately mine shrivelled up in the summer - i hope it comes back in the Spring.

Not sure what it is! It’s been there for years.
Anybody tell me what it is please?

Google lens tells me it's a burning bush, and I can see why it's called that!! Beautiful Latin name Euonymus alatus

Thanks Sariss.
you have reminded me what it is and you are correct. I’d never have remembered otherwise.
