possibly dolly..scroll down the pics...

[murraymints]

no it's not..thought you meant the yellow/orange thing at the bottom

[murraymints]

spirea ?

[Toorak]

The one at the bottom is a geum but I have no idea what the lilac one above it is

[rockyracoon]

Sorry, yes the purple one.

Could be a variety if spirea, the flowers look delicate enough. Not sure about the leaves, though.

[rowanwitch]

Either rosemarinus prostrata. Or a trailing ceanothus. If the leaves smell of rosemary then it's number one, .

[Chipchopper]

It looks like 'Budlea alternifolia to me.

[rowanwitch]

Good point, I thought it was a bit early though. But I think you are right

[Togo]

Before I read the other relies I thought Budlea of some sort. With Chip on that.

[Togo]

Or maybe a Wisteria of sorts?

[rockyracoon]

When I first saw it, I though Budliea, but I’ve only ever known them to have more spikey shaped flowers. I’ll have a google about at varieties.

I can’t het in the garden to have a sniff, unfortunately.

Thanks all

I think it's a lilac. I think it's syringa vulgaris. I think you've got a clematis growing thru it tho.
