Hi,
Can anyone help me identify the three plants/shrubs in the pics.
Also, anyone any advice on controlling them.
Then pink and yellow guys are in a very large planted area amongst various trees like hawthorn, Scots pine, mountain ash and crab apple. But they are getting very big. I also have dogwood in there, but in January I cut them down to about 1 foot high to keep them a nice size come summertime.
The third shrub is starting to pop up in other beds in the garden and I may move some of them back to the largest area when the time is correct.
Thanks all,
Brian.

From what I can see ( craning my neck sideways ! ) the yellow one is Forsythia, the pink one possibly a Ribes or flowering currant ( not too sure about that as I've never seen one so vividly coloured ) and the top one seems very like an Amelanchier.....lucky you...one of my favourite small trees. |

Thanks for the reply,
Sorry about the rotation, they are correct on my photobucket account but wrong when I link them?
I'll re-create the link and see if that works. |
