You can imagine what they were like at this time of the year. His old-fashioned roses are perfection.<br />Are there any more of your unusual, sea-side plants to come? I found them so interesting.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367416329197066280.post-43966759038480073932016-06-28T18:52:03.032+01:002016-06-28T18:52:03.032+01:00Here I am.

Unfamiliar to me, that is, as I live so far from the sea and they are obviously sea shore plants.

The Stonecrop does look quite splendid along the beach, there is also a white version called English Stonecrop.Derek Faulknerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140363868104172311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367416329197066280.post-77315581687939357062016-06-28T01:16:51.616+01:002016-06-28T01:16:51.616+01:00Never heard of prickly lettuce before.
