If you have an Android phone the plantnet  app is great are identifying plants and trees. Not overly intuitive to use at first I thought but it certainly does the job.

It says your plant is Wood Spurge which I've never heard of. It also mentions several other spurges as possibles.

I dumped Ring when the sub went up massively and took your advice about Blink. It seemed to me to be getting slower and slower announcing the caller and even says playing clips from usb will be slow. I think most of that is to push the subscription.

I got a Reolink 180 degree security camera which records to my Synology NAS and was very impressed so I switched to their doorbell. It is far better at coping with the heavy passing foot traffic and not recording a load of irrelevant stuff.

Quite why it decided to be an ice cream van if it did and it wasn't the phone or my sausage fingers I don't know. I'm not that fussed either so long as I don't confuse it with WhatsApp.

I don't know the pot plant, Alex,   but the Rhododendron's looking good.   :upvote:

And Yes,  you were right about my Clematis being a Montana. 
As you say,  very hardy and easy to grow.

I wonder who decided he was no longer a danger to anyone? They have much to answer for.

The policeman who suffered severe injuries was off work for five months .
His dog was also stabbed

My Rhododendron is getting a bit squeezed out, it's been there for years.
