    Hi,

    Having recently moved to a new house, I am unsure of some of the trees and shrubs the previous owners planted here and would like to be sure of what they are before I proceed to remodel the garden. I have attached pictures and would be grateful if anybody who recognises these would be able to help me out...thank you so much!

    I have also included a picture of some type of growth that is coming up in clumps in the garden and I wanted to make sure it was a weed before removing or is it a bulb that is going to flower at some point? thanks a lot!!

    Best,

    Sarah

    First one looks like a Holly of some sort, last one looks like a couple of blind daffodils

    Middle one is too small to really distinguish. It is either a dwarf Prunus or perhaps a Ribes.

    For some reason I think the first plant is a Gardenia. The second one with the dark leaf a Berberis and the third one a Daffodil which looks as if it's growing blind (not flowering) as JazzSi said. I'd dig it out as it's unlikely to flower, there will be a bulb at the base of the stem.
