Some I don't know...


Some I don't know...

Anyone help? 3rd row back, the plant in the pot on the right produces red berries that smell like germolene when squeezed! The one on the right is a bulb/corm I think. This one is a red flower, comes in pink also. Given by a friend, forgot what she said they were!

The little plant with the red berries might be a Solanum of some kind PG not to sure but ,the other is Schizostylis ...

I think the one with red berries is Gaultheria. I bought one last week.

It needs acid soil - ericaceous compost!!! The schizostylis is happy in damp soil in the sun, where it will spread.

Remember those names now, was told about the ericaceous compost so that is what it is in.
Thanks people!
