Tellima grandiflora ?

Looks like Tiarella to me Spritz - correction, Tellima, as mentioned above - having a senior moment here, one of several...

They are related though,very nice freebie Spritz :)

Ooh, I dunno about that Aster - I planted this in a shady area in a garden 20 years ago - within five years it spread absolutely everywhere - take my advice, Spritz, and chop the flower heads down before they let their seed go - prolific seeders they are.

Yes I suppose it's a case of "one mans' weed is another mans' ground cover" lol :)

I'd go for Tellima grandiflora too. Mine are just coming into flower too. seeds freely too. I love the smell, reminds of the sweets floral gums from my childhood.

So it's a shade plant is it? Oooops! She had it in a sunny border, so that's where I planted it, too. I'd better move it!

Thanks, all. :-)))

I do have some in my only sunny bit too and it is doing fine. so it is up to you spritz. I sent you a pm by the way. but told you the wrong blog it was the earlier one.

I have it and I do try to remember to cut the flower stems to prevent self seeding. It is a member of the Saxifrage family of plants. Did you know or is anyone aware of the Saxifrage Society. It is based in Somerset.

No? I'll have to find out about it.

I have this too, mines just developing flower stems too tellima grandiflora (fringecups) seeds around here too, didn't know it had a scent SBG I'll be on my hands and knees in the wood when the flowers open,lol.

If it doesn't mind sun, I shall leave it where it is! It'll have a job seeding itself - it hasn't got much room to do it. LOL.

This is a bit of goldilocks. If it can't find a space in one bed it tries all the others. Great for your 'open days' plant stall.

That's good - I have a line of pots already! I've potted up a lot more than last year....but it's for charity, so I'm hoping somone will buy them. :-))

You'd laugh - I spot a seedling of something and out it comes, straight into a pot!

I planted over one hundred seedlings of Alchemilla Mollis in pots at Suntrap yesterday so I know the feeling.

Now that 'is' a lot of seedlings! ;-/
