Yesterday David and I went to visit his Mum and Dad at home. A lovely day.
We had a walk around the garden and admired the roses, lupins, delphiniums and some hardy orchids in pots.
I did not take any photos, except for this plant, which is a bit of a mystery.
It is an unusual color and shape and stands about three foot high in its pot.
Pretty little flowers and very popular with the bees.
I am pretty sure we saw that at Chelsea last year. Mum and I looked it up but I can't remember what it was!
ReplyDeleteClaire - thank you for your suggestion - it is another variety of Alium - Sicilian Honey Garlic - Allium Siculum
ReplyDeleteI should have realized from the leaf, perhaps - and apparently when crushed it smells strongly of garlic.
