    the second is Tellima grandiflora.

    the first is too dark to see

     Thank you!  I have tried to brighten the photo a little bit so it is clearer.  It had a single tall thin flower stem coming from the centre but I snipped it off as it was dead.  I'm not sure if this plant is a giant weed!

    Tellima very happy in shade and has a nice scent to it Patsy. Seeds about a bit but not hard to control.

    That might be a weed Caroline but not convinced. Could be echinops or a few other possiblities. Could you post a photo taken in good light tomorrow. Leaf colour can help in ID

    Top one might be an Acanthus

  • Hi Caroline, I would say the first plant is an echinops.
