Dear botanists & gardeners,
Would one of you be so kind as to look at this image and tell me what
species each of these these two trees are?
The image link is he

You will have to mouse-over the image to see the highlight marks. If
you click on the magnifying glass icon above the image you can see a
higher-resolution image of the same shot which will allow you to see
the shapes of the individual leaves.
I thought that the first one looked like a Chamaecyparis.
I had that impression, too.
The foliage of
the second looks like cherry laurel (Prunus laurocerasus), but the
flowers don't seem quite right (too small).
Privet came to my mind, though I doubt that's right.
There is Ligustrum lucidum, sometimes known as glossy privet, or
largeleaf privet, though I doubt that as well
But there's not enough detail visible for me to make a positive
identification of either.
Agree with that.
Wonder where these mystery trees are located...
