I.m not sure ali as they are in 3 places in the garden but each patch has dwindeled in size to just a few large stems each, maybe they need a feed of some kind? Be in your neck of the woods tomorrow as we are going to the safari park sorry I haven't got back sooner - things took over. At the time I was thinking off the top of my head and also hoping someone would come up with a better answer - You say they are in different places in the garden,so it makes me wonder if it is the soil/Position they don't like.? - i'm still learning, so I really don't know. - can anyone else help please. Sleepy - I know you prefer veg and are very good with shrubs, but can you help please. <cutesmiley>

I love white flowers best of all - what's the last one Roan? Not sure, it might be a clematis.

By golly Elsie! You could be right! I like taking pictures of flowers, but naming them is not my strong point.

Sweetleaf you are a genius! I think someone did say they were related to the Datura plant. Now I will have to go back to the Botanical Gardens and have another look. I might even have to ask one of the gardeners there for an opinion. I wish they had little labels on them, it would make it so much easier, but the trouble is they would get pinched! ;D

Hmmm, less like a Brugmansia than I thought, they dont exactly climb, they more reach for the sky really. You need to put us out of our misery Roan. ;D Sweetleaf you are up very early in the morning! I will try and get the answer for you so that you can sleep! ;D
