    No.1 Euphorbia amygdaloides var robbiae ; can be invasive !

    No.2 Carex Pendula (Pendulous sedge) ; can seed around freely!

    No.3 Looks like Lonicera nitida ; responds well to very hard pruning ; sometimes used for topiary !

    Glad to help .

    An attractive plant for a woodland garden ; keep some ! Don't let any of the white sap touch your skin ; I rubbed my eyes years ago after handling succulent Euphorbias , never thought that several hours later the dried sap could cause so much pain in my eyes ; believe me , I won't do that again !
