Hi folks,

I realise this isn't a botanical group but I also know from years of
visiting here, there must be somebody (possibly many) who will be able to
help.

We have a friend who has a tree in their garden - seems to be a broad leaf
tree and it is currently (December - North Scotland) fully green with
loads
of red berries. I've been googling but still don't know what tree it is.

I've placed a couple of photographs here

If anybody could identify it we would be very grateful.

Neil

I would say its a Cotoneaster, I will let someone else tell you which
species!
