# 3 is a Begonia.
According to Tortoise table: "It has no known toxicity, but feed only in moderation as part of a varied diet"

The first one looks like Mint. Crush it and if it smells like mint - it is...
The second and forth ones look like Chrysanthemum.

Third - Begonia

The 3rd is begonia thanks to your help.
Going to check if it is mint tomorrow.
Not to sure about Chrysanthemum though :/

Chrysanthemum (Pyrethrin) is one of the plants used to make bug killer, however it is called an herb, and is edible.

Mint is edible.

1. Mint - safe to feed ... and pretty good with lamb or in a Pimms for humans too Tortoise Table | Mint
We have it in the garden and Joe ignores it.... which is a shame because it spreads like wildfire.

2. Chrysanthemum - do not feed Tortoise Table | Chrysanthemum

3. Begonia - feed in moderation Tortoise Table | Begonia
Lasts roughly 5 seconds in the garden if I bother to plant it. Joe likes!

4. Dahlia - safe to feed Tortoise Table | Dahlia
