Two different shrubs, two different gardens, two very similar photos; like color negatives of each other.

Beautiful images. What are the shrubs? The pink one looks like an Azalea. The other??? Perhaps a Deutzia? Thanks.

Hi Carolyn — Per Jon Peter, the Garden’s Manager of Plant Records, the white one is Kolkwitzia amabilis – beautybush. Apt, no?
