    Hi Everyone:

    I just moved into a new place a couple of months ago and over the last month, a lot of plants have sprouted in the beds in my backyard. I have some suspicions about some of the plants but am not sure they are right or which ones are weeds and which ones are edible. Thanks!!!

    Notes:
    6928 is found all over my asparagus patch.
    6929 is in a different patch. When younger, they smell a little like parsley. No smell now.
    6930 is has a rough texture on the stem and underside of leaves - I think this is a weed.
    6931 & 6932 No idea what these guys are.

    Hi --

    6928 looks like a weed, though I don't know the name of it. Maybe someone else knows the name.

    6929 is parsley, now blooming and going to seed. It looks like you have a parsley with curly leaves, and the larger one might be italian parsley

    You are correct 6930 is a weed

    The plant with large leaves looks like a potato that has been left in the ground over winter.

    The final photo looks like oregano to me--crush a leaf and see if it is aromatic.

    First is one of the annual knotweed species. I agree with all other identifications already made.
