? Saxifragaceae
« on: August 07, 2009, 09:16:22 PM »
Three friends and I visited Daluaine Garden at Rhynie in Aberdeenshire last week.  None of us could put a name to the following plant growing in the riverside garden.  I'm sure some of you clever people on the forum will recognise it. The leaves look like Peltoboykinia in one of my books but there is no picture of the flowers and the description (small bell shaped, greeny yellow) is quite different.

Thank you Diane.  I will tag my pictures immediately before I forget.
