        @Elina A lot of perennials are like that. When you want them and haven't got them, they are objet de desire. Once you've got them, they can be frankenstein from hell, which can't get rid of. For example, Arum lily, Acanthus mollis. With Oriental poppy, their flowering period is very short and they leave you with tons of stalks and leaves to compost. You can cut them down a bit after the first flush and get a weaker second flush. Sometimes, I do think one is justified to call it weed.

          May I suggest you start a new thread and add 3-4 plants at a time for further queries. Long threads can get very confusing and messy.
          Especially as you have two number 1 and two number 2.

          The clearer your pics the more chance you have of an accurate id.
          First batch are not very sharp.
          .
          .

          First lot.
          2. Looks like Viburnum sp.
          ----------------------------------------------------------

          Second lot of pics.

          2.Sorbaria sorbifolia Sem

          sorbaria sorbifolia sem - Google Search

          3.Spiraea douglasii.

          spiraea douglasii - Google Search
          4. Rubus...a raspberry or similar.
          5. Ilex...Holly
          6. Buxus...Box.
          7. Euonymus . Maybe Euonymus fortunei Emerald n Gold.

          euonymus emerald gaiety rhs - Google Search
          8. Centranthus ruber.

            Magnificient ID's as always @Silver surfer :dbgrtmb:

            In first sets of pics it's hard to zoom in with enough detail but pic with hands under a plant that has a wicker pot on the right hand side :snork: looks like Wood Avens (Geum urbanum) and a closer shot would be appreciated. If they are Wood Avens, it's would be a good idea to get rid of them before they go to seed.
