I rather like Irises and once we had the colours that grew for a few years and now only the dark blue ones grow, the others have just disappeared.
The lavender with a bee grew beside the fishpond until the fish pond was removed so the lavender was disposed of. We now have a very similar lavender in another area of the garden, we used to call the lavender 'Spanish Lavender' but these days it has some other name.
