They are both beautiful flowers, SBG!

I should have thinned out the Lysimachia last year as it's taking over an area now ... :o(

I believe you can pull it up fairly easily so perhaps you can try thinning out a bit now, perhaps it might be possible to replant some of the thinnings elsewhere if you like them & have the space.

Thanks David, I shall wait until it's dying down before I remove some of it as the Bees (few that are around) are enjoying the flowers.
