    They look like they could be a couple of different Rhododendron plants but the pictures are a little too blurry to really be certain.

    It could also be Kalmia which is in the same family as Rhodos & Azalias....

    Do you know anything more about this plant? More info would help to ID this plant.

    The one on the right looks like Choisia ternata. Crush one leaf and smell. If a strong spicey smell is present, then it is Choisia ternata.
    Cheers, LPN.

    Looks like pieris and choisya. Kalmia may be possible, but pieris my first guess.

    Two very common items likely to be encountered for sale in suitable climates.

    I agree, the plant on the left could well be Pieris.
