    #1 is juvenile foliage of a species of Araucaria, most likely A. heterophylla or A. columnaris (not distinguishable from each other in juvenile foliage).

    4 looks to be some kind of selaginalla... 5 may be doryopteris species of some kind, if it's a fern. Can't tell from the photo what the rachis may look like... Agree that #1 is Araucaria...

    #5 isn't a fern; it may be a leaf from a mulberry or paper mulberry seedling.
