Seedum? IMG_2024[1]
Self seeded and showed its head for the first time this season I think its a variety of 'Seedum' but the leaves are slightly different to the normal version of it,.. so if anyone knows what it is or can identify it let me know?

Yes I found somethin g out I never ever saw before on these site, yet its been there all along..the rotation button on the photos in the downloader here. its under the photo once you've loaded it to the site.. durghh never saw it before in over 13yrs in these sites.
Now Honeysuckle is seen as a toxic plant here, when the early settlers came over with it, they didn't realise our climate is way warmer than the UK, and as such it thrived so fast it took over everything strangling natives, its a pretty vine the flowers are lovely and bees & butterlies love it too, but DOC hates it and wants it gone.. I don't blame them either, I have a piece of it on my bern and I have to keep chopping it down from climbing up a lamp post and it wont even die with spray its that bad.. The UK settlers that came here came with a number of plants that just don't suit our countries climate and although I can see why they came with them our poor DOC now spend years & heaps of money trying to eradicate them, as they smother our native plants and stop the seeding process of them..
These include, Agapantha, Bear's breeches, honeysuckle, hawthorn, wild ginger, ragwort, thistle, deadly nightshade,& wooly nightshade, gorse thistle, Ivy, black berry, morning glory, banana passionfruit, Jasmin, Moth plant, Castor plant, old mans beard, Prevet, both kinds the small leaf & the broad leaf..to name a few there are many more..

Glad you got it sorted out with Ning Vlada, yes my plants are doing well and the honeysuckle at the front is the best I've ever seen it, still blooming even now and has little blackberries. Usually we get mildew on the honeysuckle, but I guess the weather we've been having has worked well for some of the plants, just not the apples and raspberries!

Our plants have been cut down right to the base after the heat waves this summer and have grown well and flowered and are still in bloom even now. They've seeded in the gardens near to. They like the limestone chippings in front of the house, it's ideal for them. I originally brought the seeds back from the seaside, think it was Tenby in Wales.
Centranthus ruber. Ideal for rockeries, dry stone walls, and dry borders. Its colourful flowers attract bees and other pollinating insects.
this is the variety we have growing Vlada

the flower and colour reminds me of the Valerian that grows at the front of my house
Multi Dimensional Reality
The world as you know it - all that you see, taste, feel and touch, comprises only about 5% of all of the stuff of the universe. The other 95% is what we have considered "nothing" or the "firmament" or dark matter or the heavens or mystic Other Worlds. This 95% is multi-dimensional and consists of potential realities that may be perceived.
A single thought...a mere whisper, ...... barely upon a breeze that catches a spark... all is tinder before the firestorm... and yet.
ONLY that whisper
ONLY that thought
the world is forever changed beyond the fears and dreams of cardboard men.
Freedom and change starts within:
It is encouraged by truth and courage of people who love
Built by the respect of true beings standing as one before each other.
Lets us cross every man made borders
without fear stare into eyes and hearts of all our brothers and sisters: within our words without shouting,or force to hold each to our truths; and let us without fear freely share what works...
