Can anyone tell me what this is? The leaves don't have a distinctive smell (like geraniums) and the pretty flowers are daisy like. Suckers / new plants prolific.

Hopefully someone will be able to help. It was given to an elderly neighbour as a gift last year but the giver didn't know what it was either. Sometimes it would be useful if plants were like seaside rock ...
Is there any more information I should be trying to get to help with the identification (you can see that I'm a houseplant novice)
The flowers remind me of a cinereria(sp). there are a few plants that are grown in the greenhouse that could be passed off as house plants. But the foliage is a little different than what I remember.
The flowers remind me of 'Anemone blanda' but I'm not sure if the leaves are quite right. Will keep looking.
Hi, I would love to know the name too, my first guess is cinereria growing in poor light.Great photos too!
Interesting thought. Have looked at some images (google) but cannot find anything with quite the same relaxed flower shape. Thank you too re the photos - mobile phones are useful sometimes
Not furry I've just sent the photos to BBC Scotland's gardening show - maybe their experts can sort? Another neighbour has just seen the pictures and wants one too!
If this keeps up we are going to have to give the plant a temporary name like 'George,' except George is taken. How about a female name as in alternating hurricane names. Is it possible for a closeup of the flower and perhaps a leaf/flower node. This plant may be more popular in Europe/UK. Plant history may be helpful.....does it grow wild somewhere or only in greenhouses. The questions keep adding up when Identification is not eminent. It may become winter project #2. Jerry
It needs to be a blue name ... I believe it was a gift from the Bishop of Durham so how about Jessica or Jessie?
