I found the two plants growing in a Carroll County Park. Could you identify them for me? Thank you.

Hi,

The first looks like one of the many cultivars of Astilbe (the purple-pink plumes) and Acanthis mollis aka "Bear's Breeches" for the second. Two perennialss that are non-native ornamental garden plants.

Thank you very much. I had been hoping that the Park was planting native flowering plants.
