Plant Quiz - part 1

Taking ClaraLou's advice at face value I've loaded up various of the plants in my garden knowing that you will be able to educate me about what they are. I have to admit I've called this a quiz purely to gain attention as I have neither a prize to award nor an answer sheet to know if you are correct! But thank you for taking part anyway

thanks
Gavin.

 

1/ may be a Ceanothus, 2/ is Honeysuckle, 3/ is Choisya "Sundance", 4/ is Fuchsia magellanica, 5/ is a Camellia.:gnthb:

 

Wow thanks Dai:ntwrth:

 

You are welcome, going to have a stab at part 2 now.:lollol::gnthb:

 

I go along with Dai on 1 to 4, but think 5 is Vinca major

 

Could be Pete, there`s a Vinca in part 2.:gnthb:

 

I'm with Dai for 1, 2 and 4. I recognised 3 but forgot the name!

 

I thought periwinkle for 5 too

 

5. I believe that this is Vinca minor.
Unless I am mistaken the margins of the leaves are smoooth.
In Vinca major the margins are hairy.

Aaron, 3 is definitely Choiya ternata Sundance, aka Mexican Orange Blossom.:gnthb:

 

I've had girlfriends like that

 

The margins are hairy in Gavin's photo.

lol @ Ziggy

 

I must need new glasses. They looked smooth to me.

 

I only saw it when I opened the attachment, then it was like looking at Abraham Lincoln s00k

 

Thank so much everyone - I foresee a great period of reading up about the delights that surround me
