    Ordered a lucky dip of perennial shrubs with no ID inside. Any ideas?

    @Leanne2511
    It is a bit difficult from the photo you posted. If you could take individual photos of the plants, an overall view and a closer one of a stem with leaves including any flowers; that will make identification easier.

      Some of these are guesses (?)

      1) Conifer, perhaps Lleylandii

      2) Hydrangea

      3) Does this have thorns? If so might be Pyracantha.

      4) Contoneaster?

      5) Box?
