    Hello everyone. I was given these from a friend for my front garden. But what are they?

    Also, the last one keeps growing in my back yard. It is so pretty, but is it a weed?

    First one is Galium odoratum (Woodruff) or a close relative.

    The middle one resembles a Primula sp., judging from the flowers, but I can't make out the leaves. It looks as though it is intergrown with some other plant?

    The cranesbill is the annual reseeding pest species G. robertianum, in places it likes thousands of of them come up every year where successful eradication is not undertaken.
