    Hi Everyone

    I took these lately along Regent's Canal, London and was wondering what they are?

    Many thanks for any help or advice :)

    That third one looks like morning glory or bindweed - nasty weed but pretty looking.

    First one could be Aster or Erigeron. Second one looks like a Geranium. Third one might be Ipomea.

    #1 Aster species (a garden cultivar of Michaelmas Daisy).
    #2 Malva alcea (Greater Musk-mallow).
    #3 Calystegia sepium (Hedge Bindweed) or C. silvatica (Large Bindweed). Need to see the calyx at the back of the flower to tell the difference (but they're both nasty weeds anyway!).

    Malva, so it is. Should have clicked on it.
