Maybe entirely off-topic. But I lived with a concrete pad, so had to bring nature to me
.
Nothing but haybales and compost made veggies grow on concrete.

The plant in picture number one is delicious on eggs. Chives. I would like to know what the pink ones in picture number four is, does anyone know? The green stuff next to them is a thuja bush but those pink flowers do not grow on thuja.

Those small yellow flowers, meadow buttercup, when I was a kid we would hold one of those under someones chin. And if you saw a faint yellow spot on their chin it meant they liked butter. A butter test, it was very scientific. Not sure why we wanted to see if people liked butter though.

Same! Must have been a worldwide phenomenon for children in the eighties.

This is what happens when kids don't have internet, they are outside playing with meadow buttercups and doing butter tests.

Wild Geranium. A native woodland flower.

We did the butter test with dandelions which left yellow pollen on chins regardless of butter preference.

Beautiful pictures, Starflowerpower. Thank you for brightening my day.

That looks really nice, especially the one in the first picture, that's a clematis. They climb and cover everything. And you have something special there, yellow lupine. I almost can't remember the last time I saw a yellow one, they are always purple, white or pink. And I see a white lilac, I have that in my garden, that one is also blooming right now.

I think the meadow buttercup butter test is much more scientific than the dandelion test.

Are these the ones you wanted help with? The first one is a type of Weigela. I think number 3 is Lamb's Ear. And the last one looks a lot like a Peyone. In a few days it will have very big and very nice looking flowers. I'm not sure about the other two but maybe someone else knows what it is?

My uncle built the chairs.

 

[AdamG]

I love those styles of chairs Apparently there are plans online for these, I've thought about making some myself. But don't have a good workplace for cutting wood until I can move.
