What are these 2 plants, any ideas?

[Longingforthesummer]

Purple one is tall and the other has big pink flowers

I think the purple one is liatris spicata (not the right spelling)

I can't really see the leaves on the pink one. Is it a shrub? Maybe a cistus

I think the pink one is Cosmos.

Actually changed my mind I think the purple might be a Veronica

The leaves of the pink one look a bit like a dahlia

Tall one is Linaria purpurea.

The pink one looks like a peony to me. I have a similar one in my garden.

Remove heads after flowering as it will seed all over the place.

I think the pink one is a peony.

Pink one is Cosmos?

The pink ones look like Cosmos daisies. Is the purple one salvia?

I'd agree the purple one is Linaria (Toadflax) and the pink is Cosmos.

Pink is a peony.

The pink ones look exactly like the cosmos I wanted to get from the garden centre today, but they didn't have any

Me too, maybe Seashells.

The leaves for the pink one are definitely a paeony and I don't think cosmos are in flower yet?

Cosmos and dahlias aren’t in flower yet.

I think peony (that seems to be peony foliage, not the very finely-cut leaves of cosmos) and linaria.

Peony anomala and linaria purpurea. That's a nice peony.

Is the pink flower not a Japanese anenome?

There’s no Japanese anemone foliage there and they flower in about September.

if thats a peony then its beautiful! Can you get a picture of its foliage too?

The smaller pale pink one at the back is also linaria. We've had the purple ones self-seeding all over our garden for 30+ years, and occasionally a pink one turns up as well.

Recommend the add "PlantNet". You can upload a photo and it usually tells you the species and shows example photos so you can double check! Use it all the time :)

Agree with Peony and Linaria.

Stop it with plant net. It’s wildly inaccurate. It’s peony anomala.
