Bonsai anyone?

Two of these are adenium obesum .. the one with the wide open flowers. They are actually normal plants .. that naturally grow that way. However, I am curious to know what the other plant/tree is? I would like to try one of those. Does anyone know the name of the tree in the middle? I would appreciate if you could throw some light on it.

I'm pretty sure it's a Cotoneaster. I heard that they're very popular among bonsai growers because they grow really fast, they don't need anything special, and they produce nice, red berries

Claudine, thanks for that information. I just googled cotoneaster.. seems to belong to the colder climes of Europe and North America. However, I thought that these look more like buds instead of berries. Maybe it is something else. I am not so sure or may be the picture is not too clear. However, the cotoneaster does look so pretty. I would love to have one of those too.

Cotoneaster produces pink or white flowers so they can be buds, I'm not sure either
These definitely are berries:
