Hi,
I think it might be some sort of hydrangea but I’m not sure and would like to buy some more for repeat planting throughout a huge bed. Can’t afford to get it wrong! It’s the vibrant lime green plant I’m after. It has pink/purple flowers when in bloom. Thanks

Euonymus?

Spirea Goldflame?

If it is, it is east to take cuttings.

Possibly euonymus. More photos would help, I can’t see the leaves well from this one.

Download Plantnet to your phone (if you have one) brilliant when you want to identify a plant or flower.

Definitely a spirea we have a few in the garden too, they are very hardy and low maintenance 😀

Also really easy to split and replant in autumn

Spiraea is deciduous so you would have a lot of bare twigginess in winter in your huge bed.
What about, instead, an evergreen like euonymous or choisya?

Once it’s finished flowering in June/July give it a light trim all over and it’ll flower again. I love spireas, I have a few in both front and back gardens.
