    The last one's what it says on the label - Dorinicum (Leopard's Bane).

    No. 3 is a saxifrage 

    Not sure about the others - it'll be easier when the flowers come out.

    Hi

    The second one might be Armeria,  a native seaside plant [Thrift/Sea Pink], need to see it in flower to confirm that.

    Both the first and the second photos are of Thrift.

    I thought the first one might be garlic, looking at the leaves, or its an allium.

    Second one is Thrift

    Third is a saxifrage

    Fourth is Doronicum (Leopards Bane)

    Could the top one not be dianthus?

    Top one looks like an allium to me. Dianthus is more solid and spiky in it's foliage Kay - especially the new growth.

    This is one of mine from last year - big pot in middle of pic with pink flowers:

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    The first one looks very much like the Armeria giradii 'joystick' (dwarf sea thrift) that I bought last week.

    I agree with Gardenmaiden, but I think the first one is an allium. I have a white one like that.

    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    I'd go with allium,  armeria, saxifrage, doronicum
