Cheers,

The red plant is Helianthemum, but which one in particular is hard to say since all the labels have long gone.
We do not open to the public Rob, but if you happen to be walking past you would be welcome to call in.

Drinking that view in, Eric, you'll live a long time.

Worth all that effort, wasn't it?

CF, that's what I said when I first saw the pictures of Eric's garden.   ;)

BTW, you see the greenhouse in the distance in picture 3?  That's big enough to accommodate all of my garden!   ::)

PS.  Nearly forgot.   Lovely pics Eric.   :)
