Good Morning,

I have rescued three plants from my late mother’s garden but I don’t know what they are or how to care for them. 

Can anyone help me please? 

Many thanks x

    I think the second photo is of a Dryopteris fern, shade loving plant.
    I stand ready to be corrected though  :)

    There is a few mobile apps you can try, one is called LeafSnap 🌿. If you can't get then identified, wait until they have flowered and post up another snap. 

    Might be a good idea to pot them on, give them a bit of drainage at the base, and give them a water now and then if they are precious to you. You can also try taking some cuttings if they are growing well.

    Number 3 looks like Skimmia.
