    Hi

    I inherited a beautful garden with the new house, but have been unable to figure out what some of the plants are. The first one I was told was a mongolian daisy but I haven't been able to find any info online. The flowers start out white and get pinker and pinker as they age. The second and third pictures are of a plant that just started to bloom last week. It is about 3-4 feet tall now. The fourth pic is of a plant that bloomed this spring and the petals looked very velvety. The last two pics are of a plant that is now about 2ft by 2 ft and bloomed about a month ago.

    Any help greatly appreciated!
    Thanks

    I believe the first one is actually an English Daisy Bellis Perennis. I agree on with chimera on the rest.
