Absolute beginner help

raquelrmcarvalho

Hi all,

I'm an absolute beginner in all things gardening... I have very recently moved into a new house with a lovely south facing garden, with 2 raised beds, with some plants in it. The only one I can positively identify is a very large rosemary bush. although we're planning on redoing the whole garden with some professional help, in the meantime i'm making an effort in keeping the plants alive and well, so we can eventually replant them.

can someone help me identify the plants in question?

thanks a lot in advance for the help!

Hi raquel, welcome to the forum 

Number 2 could have been daffodils, did it have any yellow flowers this spring?

A random guess of Hebe for number 3 ???

4 is a pieris, possibly "forest flame" or "mountain fire"

6 is a bit euonymous like.... but I'm not certain enough to give a positive id.

Number 5 is choisya Aztec pearl. I think 3 is a hebe too!

i is buddleia

2 looks like something that hasn't flowered yet rather than something that's gone over, still very green and upright

6 agree with Kitty, Euonymus.

Thank you all for the help! Number 2 hasn't flowered yet, has a onion/garlic kind of smell, if it helps!

i'll do my research on the names you've given me, and hopefully will keep them healthy!

Number 2 in my opinion is some kind of lily, but I can't tell which one at this stage.  Perhaps you could post it again when the flowers have opened raquelrmcarvalho.  Good luck with the new garden and welcome to the forum.

With the extra "smelly" clue, I'm changing my guess for number 2 to Allium.
