It looks like an astilbe to me too! :) Dee

Hymenocallis

Officially designated as moderately invasive on LI. http://www.nyis.info/user_uploads/6b9da_Vinca%20minor.NYS.pdf

The first sure looks like Red-tips Photinia to me. The so-called 'Cleyera' of commerce is actually Ternstroemia gymnanthera. The photo does not look like Ternstroemia to me. Ternstroemia has extremely glossy and leathery (almost rubbery) leaves that grow in whorls toward the ends of the branches with very little fold in the leaf. No leaf serrations, and with usually a blunted or rounded tip. Also, Ternstroemia should be showing spent blooms about now and maybe even some seed. The true Cleyera japonica (also called Sakaki) is very rare in commerce. It has a unique terminal bud that is sort of hooked like a little finger.
