Hi there. I hope everyone is enjoying the early spring!

Anyway, last week I was out taking pics of new Astilbe I added last summer. The problem is I think I have extra ones? I planted Younique Carmine, Younique Silvery Pink. Visions, and Montgomery. I also moved in 3 Fanal, 2 pale pink noids, and 1 tiny Pumila. I can tell where all those are in the pics, but then there are 3 of these red plants that look like Astilbe. The bed was really overgrown last year before I weeded and made room for all the Astilbe, and I don't have any closeup pics after weeding to compare to now.

Dose anyone have an idea what kind these might be? The foliage and stems are both quite red. In the first pic, there's a small Fanal cut off at the top left of the pic, so you can compare its color to the noids. It only has red stems, not foliage. Thanks for any help!
