    A - Valerian (Valeriana)?
    B - Bellflower (Campanula)
    C - Oregon Grape (Mahonia aquifolium)
    D - Maybe a sort of thyme?
    E - Maybe a member of the Hydrangeaceae?
    On the last photo there seems to be a walnut (Juglans), maybe a Juglans regia.

    Agree with holly (Ilex). The hydrangea family plant is a Hydrangea.

    First one has the foliage of a valerian and not an angelica, also you should review the names you posted here to represent angelica. The spelling of the bellflower species name is persicifolia.

    Thank you all for replying.
    For E, I think it might be hydrangea too, and I also checked the photo of H. aspera I took in the botanical garden before, but I do not have the photo with the flower head like that, so I am not sure either.
    For C, my friend thinks it might be new growth of holly, that's why the colour is so bright.

    D looks like a Podocarpus. Probably a cultivar.
