  1. I think plant no 4 is an Escallonia variety. and number three has a Manganese deficiency (give manganese sulphate) Or Zinc deficiency (this is the case if the new leaves are smaller than they should be), give a zinc supplement  


  2. 3 = Rhododendron  http://images.search.yahoo.com/images/vi...  They like acid soil....epsom salts cheaper than coperas...it wants fertilizer.  Prune only after blooming, they set the next season's buds after flowering.  Evergreen, cold tollerant.

  3. Wow, beautiful flowers.  Do you live in the South?  These plants look so tropical.  The second plant looks like a fuchsia

    and the third one looks like it's suffering from iron chlorosis.

    I wish I could help more, but I'm a deset dweller and live in AZ.  

  4. No 2 looks like Weigela. It's hard to tell from that picture but look at these and see if it matches up. Weigela is a shrub that has flowers than are mainly in the pink range (reddish pink, pink to purple pink).

    My second guess would be Abelia which is also a shrub, but I think it looks more like Weigela.

    Hope this helps! :)
