  1) is Papaver cambricum (welsh poppy)
  2) Euphorbia (not sure which one)
  3) looks like Forsythia
  4) is Choisya ternata I think
  5) ?

  Thank you! I’m making an Online scrap book of all the plants so I know what I’ve got!

  Good idea! 
  If the Choisya is more yellow than green it is probably the cultivar 'Sundance'.

  5., is a Spirea.
  I think the Euphorbia is Blackbird.

  And is this a geranium of some sort? 
  
  I have a beuatiful well stocked garden which I inherited when we bought the house. After two years of just pruning and weeding I want to learn a bit more!

  The latter looks like some sort of anemone, probably Anemone blanda.

  Yes, it is a Welsh Poppy.
  2nd. one looks like Winter Aconite to me.

  Yes, agree with Puckdoc, the second photo looks like Eranthis Hyemalis.
