 Could somebody please help in identifying these plants from a friend's new garden? The first two are both about 8 ft. tall. The last, a climber, currently has no flowers but perhaps someone recognises the leaves.  Many thanks.

    Could the last one be a leycesteria Formosa? Not a climber but  very lax shrub.

    1 is something in the mallow family but if it's 8 foot tall it's not one I know. It looks too lax and small flowered for one of the shrubby ones. I can see some Aucuba japonica behind it

    Could no 1 be related to Lavatera?

    It is Invicta, definitely the mallow family. I'd like to see a photo of the whole thing as an 8 foot tall plant.image

    I agree with No 2 being a Viburnum, one of the late winter, early spring flowering types.

    Could no 3 be wisteria?

    Many thanks for all your suggestions. Mallow, Viburnum & jasmine seem the most likely answers. Below is a picture of the 8 ft "mallow".
