[quinie]

Sorry for not answering sooner(making a cuppa) no50 is spot on.Lobelia is a good answer to the other one but it's not a very good clue-too vague,I think

[clairerob21]

thanks quinie enjoy your cuppa

[quinie]

Ignore the second bit of my answer-lobelia is great. I'm getting mixed up with the quizzes!-was looking at a-flower quiz a wee while ago.
