Anyone any idea what these are? Unless they're suitable for a small and
shady front garden I think they might have to go. Thanks for any advice

First thoughts re right hand picture it could be a peris but you should
have seen red young leaves and flowers rather like Lily of the Valley
The left havd one could be one of several, I'd leave it to grow on, poss
thin out a few of the shoots.

Thanks. I'll take your advice (as usual). The occupants are relatively
new to the house so we don't quite know what's what yet


Always best to wait a year before dealing death and destruction in a
garden! I agree with the Pieris but could the other plant be a Weigela
or even a shrubby Lonicera, I wonder. It certainly doesn't look like
an undesirable.
