A number of plants to id in the new garden please.

Cheating just slightly
No 6 a possible birch.

 

Another vote for 4 Leucothoe, it looks like my Zeblid one.

 

Going to go against the current identifications and guess the number 6 picture is Prunus incisa Kojo No Mai or a close relative. Think there are good guesses already posted for the other ones.

Happy gardening!

 

Just went to check on the couple I have growing and they still have a good amount of green leaves and look to be at a similar stage to the one in the photos taken by Sheal. Garden here is on the north side of the top of a hill so usually most things are a bit behind a lot of other gardens.
All the best!

 

I agree it's one of the ornamental flowering cherry varieties. I have kojo no mai as well and it's not showing a hint of autumn colour yet.

 

The pear has a look of clapps favourite about it but if it.

 

I'll echo L. 'B's Gold', Viburnum, and Osmanthus. I grow all of those. There are various Viburnums so can't say specifically which one.

 

There are a number of reasons for that @KT53.

1. I don't use Google.
2. What's the point of having a great gardening forum like Gardeners Corner and not making use of it?
3. I've been a member here for quite a long time and know from experience that many of my/our friends here like the opportunity to test their plant knowledge.

 

Thanks to everyone that has contributed to this thread, it's much appreciated.

Now, I have to confess I posted these plants on another forum too, the replies below. Some of the answers are the same.

1. The pear I will need to go in search of as it remains unidentified. Thank you for the link @noisette47, I'll check that out.

2. Lonicera Nitida 'Baggesen's'.

3. Viburnum Tinus 'Eve Price'

4. Nandina 'Domestica'

5. Myrica (bog myrtle)

6. Prunus Incisa 'Kojo No Mai'

7. Osmanthus 'Burkwoodii'

It would seem the Lonicera Nitida is favoured by all along with Viburnum Tinus. The others I will do a search on.

I have two of these in the garden (6) , both approximately 8ft in height and multi trunked. I don't think they will grow much taller so am inclined to think they aren't one of the above, but possibly Prunus. Thanks for your thoughts.

@shiney I know you have 'Kojo No Mai', is the pattern on the bark typical of a Prunus please? I will check the two here tomorrow.

The garden has a 6ft stone wall on three boundaries so that may make a difference to the shrubs changing colour - being sheltered. However I'm living slightly further north now in Ross-shire. I'll take note of the colour change and date and compare them again next year.

 

Thanks @shiney, yes there is a slight zigzag on the branches. Sorry, what I wrote may have been a bit misleading, I was referring to the pattern on the trunk bark. Is it the same as other Prunus varieties?

 

For the putative Kojo No Mai, the new growth (those small sub-leaves or whatever it is called) looks more (deep) reddish than what I am used to, and possibly less zigzaggy, and the leaves themselves have more purple in them. When was the picture taken?
