I agree with one and Two, but # 3 is some kind of flowering fruit tree.

#3 looks a lot like some kind of Rhododendron

I agree with all three. (#3 definitely not a hollyhock or rhodie)

Thumbs up Good eye Kurt! We don't have bloom photos of Ornamental Peach (Prunus persica 'Peppermint') in our database but that one sure looks like a perfect match!
