i have this in my front yard, an app claims it is Pieris Japonica but im not positive. i notice the 'red' are areas i pruned it in the spring...

here a different plant i was curious about too, if anyone know if these are bonsai material or potential feel free to chime in,
ive been working on figuring out what i have around my property. pretty stoked on a large twin trunk lilac thats growing after a hardcut. it was 15' tall with purple flowers.

this might be differant than the first or even the same?? this is growing too close to my azalea in front i might be able to dig this up

Definitely Japanese Andromeda. People have applied bonsai culture to this species and cultivar... not my cup of tea, though.

neat...no lie the base on this thing is like a foot wide with (4) 3" trunks coming out of it...i just read theyre hard to air layer
so maybe ill just try to get a cutting going at some point. thanks for your input
