The first photo looks like a mix - large leaves probably foxgloves and frilly leaves probably geum. Could be other things in there too which I can't ID. The second photo has a row of aquilegia plus other things I can't quite make out and the 3rd one is of pots of lupins. 4th photo is another mixed tray - the small ones might be begonia, but not sure of the rest - possibly a wallflower or two in there.
A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
I think the top tray has some foxgloves in there and something that looks like geums. .
the second tray looks like delphiniums on one side and some sidalcea and some aquilegia and something else
third looks like lupins
fourth looks as if there are at least three types in there, possibly Cerastum tormentosum (Snow in summer), and possibly a daisy-type something or other and something else.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
They all need some tlc, too, Kweegly! I'd transfer each module to a 3" pot and grow them on for a bit. If you do that and then group pots of similar plants together and take more photos in 2-3 weeks time, we'll be able to ID just about everything I would think.

Whatever they are - pot them on into some good compost in individual pots and put them in a sheltered corner or coldframe - I'd put them on a bed of grit to guard against slugs - especially with the delphiniums! and inspect them for slug and snails frequently. Wth a bit of tlc now they'll soon be ready to plant out

I have quite the selection then, can I ask how you tell each apart what are the key features? I am completely new to gardening and I google'd foxglove for example and can't tell which one it relates too in the tray.
Thanks for all your help, I will put them into there own pots and hope they recover .
I have now separated the trays into pots and have taken a few more pictures, if this helps.
Pic4 is all over my front flower bed but I'm not sure what it is. I went to the garden centre and it looked like something they had called a Charlotte.

Hi Queegly
Foxgloves at the top, then aquilegia, don't recognise 3.
The last may well be spanish bluebells
