The very last one is an ornamental ground cover called pachysandra and the one above that looks like a wild violet. There are a lot of violets blooming right now.


Thanks @Maro2Bear. Looks like the wild violet should be safe from what I'm reading on tortoise table?

1. Unsure
2. Bittercress. Safe to feed. It is a type of brassica so it shouldn't be offered everyday.
3. This could be wild radish or wintercress. Safe to feed. Is a brassica.
4. Unsure.
5. Wild violet. Aka dog violet. Safe.
6. Unsure.

#1 should also be a violet, just hasn’t bloomed yet. Compare the heart shaped leaves to the other violet.

#1 is located near a garden pond and in previous years has grown into a pretty big bushy plant, but I don't remember any flowers that look like violets ever appearing on it.

Actually, here's a picture of it from last May:

Looks like it has some small bluish flowers

Hello again,

How about this one?

Pretty sure this is more of the wild violet:

not sure about this - the one in the foreground is out of focus, unfortunately:

Definitely on the violet but crickets for the rest! I’m the same person who couldn’t identify plantain in my own yard
