    Hello Liz1958, welcome to GC. I think we'll need some clear, close-up photos of leaves (and flowers if there are any) in order to be able to help :)

      Hi thank you for your reply I think the pictures are clearer on my phone but unsure if these are any good. They seem to have pink flowers, they are lovely and tropical looking, a neighbour down my street has them but she is unsure what kind of plants they are as the person who lived there before planted them. Thanks

      Looks like a combination of willow and roses.

        Thank you, I googled and it does look like willow. Do you have any idea what kind it would be or what it is called as I would like to buy some for hedging around my front garden thanks.

        Wouldn't like to say what kind I willow I may be, but would say it grows very quickly and you could end up with having to trim it about 4 times a year .
        If you really want that one,ask for some cuttings, long one year old wood roots very easily, in spring, if pushed directly into the ground.
