Plants ID help needed


John Mitchell

Question

I'm hoping that someone knows what these plants are. Click on the images to enlarge.

 

1. Unknown (to me) spring flowers

2. Garden shrub with new red leaves (I thought they were flowers at first)

#1 is the botanical tulip, Tulipa saxatilis (Bakeri Group) 'Lilac Wonder'

#2 is Pieris formosa var. forrestii - probably a named variety but I couldn't tell you which as there are quite a few and I'm not sure which would be grown in your location..

Thanks very much, John. I thought the flowers might be some kind of tulip but wasn't sure. Shall do some research on the second one now that I have a place to start. Just about anything will grow in Vancouver, it seems.
