hi a picture would be a great help. being a shrub i thought escallonia at first but the leaf description dosent match, it kind of sounds like rhododendron prunifolium but again not the right leaf shape, could they be hardy geranium (cranesbill)..well if you google any of these you can see for yourself...

No luck with any of these the leaf is flat and seperates into 3, I am trying to figure out how I can attach a photo!
