    I recently moved into a house with a garden. I'm in the process of planning what to do with it this year and would like to know what these plants are before I decide whether to pull them out or work around them.

    The first is obviously a weed. It has tiny white flowers. Just curious. Edible?!
    The second is a small neat shrub that has stayed green all winter, with a close-up of the interesting leaf arrangement.
    The third is weedy-looking, woody and is growing in the dry space under the eave of the house.
    The fourth is a herbaceous and lanky and has been putting out yellow flowers all winter.
