    hi we have moved house and getting to know what we have in our garden.

    We have 2 of these, I haven’t a clue what they are and if the berries are poiseness (rabbits).

    Hope someone can help me please?

    Thank you
    Clair

      looks a bit like some kind of Cotoneaster to me, so doubt very much that they are poisonous.

        Welcome to GC Clair :sing0016:, hope you like it here.

        I am inclined to agree with @pete, however @Silver surfer will tell you for sure if anyone will :dbgrtmb:

        Welcome to GC @Clairbear74
        I`m pretty sure that is a cotoneaster - I think maybe var. 'cornubia' A lovely shrub enjoyed by the birds. Pretty sure rabbits will come to no harm with it.
        There are very many varieties of cotoneaster - maybe some of the others will be able to ID yours more definitely than me. :)
