Thanks for the ID Jopy, page updated. I have a book of Mediterranean plants (Wild flowers - Marjorie Blamey) now, but will still need your help to make sure I get the IDs correct. Some of the coloured drawings, such as this one, which only shows one stalk and not a large cluster, show this as dark red with pink petals whereas in the bright sunlight it appears as if the petals are almost white.
