Thank you all very much for your help, firstly I managed to purchase a book on shrub's by Roger Phillips & Martyn Rix (Cheers Kay) Its great & helped a great deal with lots of pictures, I'm still looking for the Gardeners Encyclopedia by DK as this will help with some of the other plants.
Emry's you were spot on with the "Pink Shrub" thats exactley it & without a photo too, I have spent ages on Daves Garden Site & its proving really useful so thanks for that!
I am in the process of taking photo's of everything in the garden & hopefully soon they will all have names! Well off I go again with my camera....(maybe I should publish a book called "The beginers guide to plant recognition" when I'm done .....lol)
Once again thank you all very much

Does anybody know of a site with plenty of photo's that I may find useful, I need to know what they all are!
Any help will be most appreciated....
