| | | Re: Look harder and you'll find real beauty That is really beautiful BM would love to know what it is as my garden is quite small so I can only squeeze in small plants. I agree with aeshma it does look like a saxifrage.

| | | Re: Look harder and you'll find real beauty I think it could be London Pride - Saxifraga urbium, but I'm not sure. There is some of it growing wild near me, but I believe it is a garden plant. |

| | | Re: Look harder and you'll find real beauty It's a saxifrage, but which? The speckled petals are not London Pride. Difficult to track without leaf formation. |  | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
