I'm having problems in identifying the attached plant. At the moment it is about 5ft tall and is convered with drooping flowers. I did think it may be some type of aqueligia but I'm not too sure.
Hope you can help.
Thanks
Christine

It is Leycesteria Formosa. It has other names too. Some times it is called flowering nutmeg or pheasant berry or Himalayan honeysuckle

Apologies Christine, stand corrected Inverglen!

I agree with Inverglen, it's Leycesteria formosa.

Leycesteria formosa, without question.

Yes ,definitely Leycesteris Formosa

And it will seed itself everywhere.

Errr, it doesn't here, 2ndhand !
I'm always interested to hear when other peoples plants spread but not here, it must be me ;-)

As it's spread by birds, perhaps your garden birds eat the berries and fly off to your neighbours' gardens to "sow" them, Louise. :-)
