I was wondering if any of the very kind and knowledgeable people could
ID
some plants for me? I have uploaded to Flickr at
http://www.flickr.com/photos/13882468@N04/sets/72157616117704599/ .

The reason I say this may be slightly off topic is that these plants
are
from the Sierra Nevada in Spain. Some (or all) may also be found in
the UK -
I have no idea at all!

I would be very grateful for any input please.

If you're asking Sacha, she's always asking here for plant IDs so I
wouldn't trust her advice too much if I were you. The fact that she
can't ID plants doesn't say much for Hillhouse Nursery really, does it?

HTH.
