THESE WILD FLOWERS GROW IN A STATE PARK OF MENDOZA (LOS ANDES MOUNTAINS) THEY GROW AT A VERY HIGH ALTITUDE (ABOVE 3,500M) DO YOU, BY ANY CHANCE, KNOW THE NAME OF THEM?

Tropaeolum polyphyllum.

Many thanks for this instant assistance.

Cliff, Tropaeolum polyphyllum is a wonderful garden plant.

It grew so well in Phil & Gwen Phillips garden they grew it up against a trellis.

[ranunculus]

Magnificent. Many thanks Mike.

The same red devil that won't grow at all in many gardens, Angie.      It should be called Tropaeolum enigma.

Cliff everytime I see it for sale in garden centres it make feel like throwing them all in the first avaliable bucket.  Some of these plants should come with a warning.

Indeed - not a chance of it being invasive in our garden.

You are really lucky then Darren. Its everywhere and because this winter was mild it is already above my Rhododendrons.

Angie,

Which Red Devil is that?  Which species?

[Maggi Young]

Tropaeolum speciosum..... I'm already pulling it up here,too.
I do love it, it is very pretty , but it does damage to some of the smaller rhodos and other Ericaceae and it can weigh other plants down by the sheer weight of its growth.
On the other hand, T. polyphyllum, which grows well in nearby gardens (nd I know is a nuisance for some) will not establish here even after many attempts! 

[angie]

That's it Maggi I do agree that it is very pretty flower but when its everywhere it then becomes a pest. But then again if I had Cypripedium or Dactylorhiza everywhere you wouldn't hear me complain

I have tried it(Tropaeolum speciosum) here numerous times but it won't grow in my garden, too hot and dry in the summer I think.
