Well I'm no expert but they are both garden escapees for sure. The second is a hybrid of Primula veris (Cowslip). The first, I'm not so sure about - my best guess is Acer palmatum.

I agree with Blackstart definitely an astilbe. They like a lot of water, and by the look of it that is a dark pink one. very pretty garden flower. The second looks like a cowslip /polyanthus hybrid. |

Gobbinner, the plant may not be an astilbe. There is a larger plant in the same family that does have that very pretty foliage while it is growing. Astilbes are up tp eighteen inches. This other plant, sorry I can't remember its name offhand, grows to between five and six feet. Are the two plants growing in waterlogged soil? Astilbe and candelabra primula are both bog plants, and on second thoughts the primula could well be a candelabra cross, if the first plant does turn out to be a deep pink astilbe. How big is the red foliaged plant now? | | |
