RHS HARLOW CARR flowers

As I mentioned in my previous post today, I visited the Royal Horticultural Society gardens at Harlow Carr this afternoon and took a few photos of the grounds and flowers.  There were not so many plants to photograph that I thought were of interest but I liked the strange plant in the first image and have no idea what it is.  The RHS at Harlow Carr are strangely remiss in providing labels for their visitors to identify plants.  Click on the images for a closer view. 



Mystery plant.  Reminds me of the house plant 'shrimp plant'.

Zonal Pelargonium display

Achillea attracting many bees and other nectar loving insects

This is some strange kind of thistle, I think. 

Giant containers packed with Cosmos???

Kniphofia and other plants.  That wall is looks revolting.  It is supposed to represent a 1960s garden feature
