SmilePlease can anyone identify this plant


Hi there,
I live in the Southern part of England and this plant grows in my conservatory. it flowers in late summer with a very pretty blue flower which is like a tiny orchid in appearance with tiny darker blue/mauve spots on the lower lip of the flower (not visible clearly in the photo).
I have no idea what it is!! Can anyone help.
Thank you
Anne

Hi Anne, welcome to the forum.

Looks like you tried to link to a photo on your local computer. Try attaching the photo to a post instead using the Manage Attachments button below the text editor when you are making a post. It should allow you to upload the photo so we can see it.

It may be a Toad Lily Tricyrtis spp.
Your picture didn't post on the Forum so my guess is based on your description. Look on Google using that name and see if it matches.
