I think otherwise. It looks like Leycesteria formosa (pheasantberry) to
me. (To the best of my knowledge Acalypha isn't hardy in Britain. It's
not a tree either - admittedly it's stretching it to call Leycesteria a
tree rather than a shrub.)

Since the photographs are unfortunately not very clear it's hard to be

Indeed. So sorry. I had not realized the source.

The source wasn't specified (posting from gardenbanter.co.uk is
suggestive, but isn't definitive); however the description as a tree I
think does eliminate Acalypha.

I don't know about this plants but they are looking good.

The second one seems like a impatien plant with pink color flowers. Can't say any thing about the first one.
