    Or 2 could be Love in a Mist, but you are probably right with Cosmos Kristen..
    3. Viola or Wild Pansy
    4. Looks like one of the Stitchwort family.. Are the flowers pink or do they come out white & turn pink.?
    Thinking about #1 for a minute

    Hmm could be Jen but I still think it is a wild pansy, only the flower heads are looking down, well I think.. Another name for the wild pansy or viola tricolour is Heartsease.. An amazing little plant... :sunny: You find it self seeded all over the place..

    :yay: Ooh yes I think you could be right about Larkspur for number 2, I had forgotten that one... :D

    :scratch: Well if it bloomed with pink flowers I think #4 could be Marsh Speedwell, don't be confused by the name as it is very common in gardens ... :WINK1: :D
