Ignore the Kilimanjaro (I know what that is!) - the daisy thingies - are they simply Michalemas Daisies? I think my wife called them that. They close up and re-open in the sunshine.
This thing flowers with bright purple round headed flowers. This again was back in may and the flowers are now starting to appear. Again - the thing above is an Escallonia (I know that one as well!)
This is out back under a cherry and also in a side border. The flowers appeared in May - about .75m high on a long thin stem. I thought it was some form of 'garlic' (allium?) - would that seem sensible? I'm not sure the leaves are the flower's!
I thought that this was a weed (maybe it is!), but it does flower (not that weeds don't) and the leaves smell of lemon. Again I know the aquilegia. So it's the big 'mint' type thing. Grows up about a metre. Seems to be spreading all over the show.
lemon balm, and yes it will spread all over the place if you let it.
Stupid question - how do you stop plants spreading? Is it simply a case of waiting for them to appear and pulling them up? The area where the lemon balm is also contains the roses, geraniums, wild garlic....blah, blah. So I'd be loathe to dig anything up - as if I'm having issues identifying the plants from the leaves/flowers, I'd doubt my ability with root systems and bulbs!

Agree with Hosta re all the others.
Allium might be cowanii
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
As has been said , some post about 20 photos and then just ask " what are the plants above?"
