Did a pick and mix at inverewe gardens but didn't make a note of what they were. Pics attached. Thanks in advance.

    Oooh tricky. Not surprised you have no responses so far. My best guesses...

    First one is definately asteracae, could be oxe-eye daisy but difficult to say at this stage as they do look similar. If you're lucky it could be Erigeron Karvinskianus, as they look like that, but probably just a daisy.

    Second could be anything. Too early to say.

    Third is a weed. Cant recall the name but I pull them up all the time from my garden. They look a little like the Kenilworth ivy seedlings that I want to encourage, so have to be careful not to remove the wrong thing.

    Fourth could be poppy (top right).

    Fifth, no idea but looks familiar.

    The long ones look like cornflowers to me or maybe centaurea
    The star shaped ones look like lupins
    In London. Keen but lazy.
