Can you help me ID this plant B?

Can you help me ID this plant B? They were planted in my front yard when I moved in last year.

This one is about 2 to 3 feet tall, bushy. I didn't see it bloom last year, my husband said he saw it bloom and couldn't do a good job describing it. The size of the leaf is bigger than the unkonwn plant above, approx. 2 to 3 inches long.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

This one looks like it could be some sort of Viburnum.

I'll second Sue, it looks like viburnum. As far as I know, salvias with this leaf type are not hardy in zone 6; then again there are some I haven't tried (but not Black & Blue, I know that won't overwinter in 6).

It looks like Viburnum plicatum to me.
Cheers,

Definitely not a salvia. I would also say some type of viburnum.
