| | | Re: pink flowers Looks like a single-flowered Stock, Mathiola species but not sure which ... go back and sniff it in the evening to see if its Night-scented Stock, M. bicornis |

| | | Re: pink flowers It's not Honesty, looks a bit like aubretia - isn't it a bit early for night scented stocks - I associate them with later in the summer? |

| | | Re: pink flowers It does look like Aubretia, but sadly there is no help in the photo showing the habit of the plant, the leaves, etc- just showing a flower isn't that helpful to get a positive ID, especially with plants like crucifers, umblels, etc. |

| | | Re: pink flowers I would be going for night scented stock  but as Aesh said - a few more photos needed for a definite ID |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
