    1.2. and 3. ????

    4. Maybe Crataegus sp.
    Am I seeing red berries on it in pic 5 in background?

    5. Euonymus sp.

    Those are not flowers but the seed capsules, which open to show the seeds inside.

        It is indeed! I am not really interested in the flower, as long as it can keep its incredibly soft leaves just as they are now...

        Silver surfer - spot on - that's the tree!
