I want to encourage you to read up on the plants around your area.... When i go to the park (I know they done use any chemical and i've confirmed this w/ the gardeners) i usually already know what to pick out for my tortoises! free food and plus gets me out the house ^_^v

don't think first two are common mallow: although blurry, the growth habit seems different...perhaps henbit:
