I have lots of weeds and plants in my garden, I've spent ages trying to work out which is which but once I'd got past dandelion I kind of hit a blank!

If any of you have too much time on your hands and fancy naming these and if they are safe/edible for Redfoots I'd be most grateful. Some may well be duplicates, they all sort of blend into one for me so I struggle to see those that are the same, so please be patient! This is why my other half won't let me do the weeding - we wouldn't have anything in the garden, I'd probably just cut it all down...

I think that's all of them, certainly weed like things that I could feed them if they are edible. I do have lots of plants too but my wife knows what they are so I can look them up for eatability!

(1) Looks like a primrose to me. Listed as a do not feed in the Tortoise Table but others from the UK may have direct experience.
(2) Concur with esteemed poster above: dandelion. Safe.
(3) I believe this is the first of several photos of buttercup foliage. Opinions on buttercups vary. I would let my Russian tortoise eat them; they are from a plant family she would eat in the wild.
(7) milk thistle, aka prickly sow thistle; safe.
(8) possibly primrose again or maybe bristly ox-tongue. Ox-tongue is safe.
(9) Buttercup again! And a little white daisy.
(10) Buttercup!
(11) Mostly clover...and a little buttercup. Clover is safe.
(11) You've got two #11s. I don't know what it is but it isn't clover, like in the first #11.
(12) Thistle, probably another milk or prickly sow thistle but safe either way.
(13) Don't know.
(14) Clover! Also a little buttercup. A little dandelion. And some grass. Presumably all safe in moderation; I don't know if your tortoise is a grass eater.
(15) Plantain. Safe.
(16) Looks familiar but that's the best I can do.
(17) Dandelion.
(18) I believe that's bristly ox-tongue again. It could also be primrose.
(19) Thistle
(20) Mostly fern.
(21) Don't know.
(22) There are quite a few plants in this photo. If you are trying to identify the one with the roundish leaves, it might be miner's lettuce but the shot is not clear enough to say.
(23) Mostly fern.
(24) Do you mean the pink flower? Not sure, maybe a nettle.
(25) Buttercup!
(26) More fern, more of the pink flower from #24. That other pink flower on the upper right? That's foxglove (digitalis). I would not feed that one.
(27) There is a lot going on here. There might be something different than other photos just at the bottom right of that tree trunk?
(28) I don't know trees, sadly.
(29) I don't know what it is but I don't like the look of it!

(30) Looks like another nettle. We don't get too many nettles where I am from, I'm afraid.
(31) Is the plant I didn't know in #16, plus some grass
(32) No idea.
(33) Would you believe...buttercup! And a few dandelions. :)

@JoesMum might have additional insight, she's a lot closer to you than I am!

I'm very jealous of all your plant options.
