Hi
Do any of you wonderful gardeners recognise this ? It's a large bush and slightly more bluey than in the photo.
Thank you!

Chaste tree (agnus castus)?

@RubaiyatOfAnyone
Thank you!
It seems to be from the Med and flowering in autumn but everything is a bit haywire season wise.

If you have an iPhone just take a picture and it will tell you in the i icon

It will give you an answer which won’t necessarily be the right one

I photoed my Blue viola plant which I have everywhere and it told me it was violets. And something else I can't remember.

The OP doesn't need to do that because someone has already positively identified it.

Unless of course you’re suggesting the app will do better than an expert gardener or a gardener who has grown the plant in question?

Of course not, whatever gave you that idea?

An expert gardener is going to know far better than some app that doesn't know whether you are in Florida, Dorset, or Outer Mongolia.

I didn't mean you! Sorry, I misquoted. I meant all the PP who dive into threads where knowledgeable gardeners have correctly identified a plant with "But if you use this app it will give you the proper answer!"

There's a lot of it about!
