Dandylion is the 1st and last. Number 2 is clover, funny colour though...so check on that. That 4th one is either foxglove or ragwort - definite NO NO, very toxic. Number 3 is ribwort plantain (or slender plantain, same thing) and a great weed for tortoises - nice and fibrous!!
See what others come along and say - get 2 confirmed more. And also 4 - but I am 85% sure its either foxglove or ragwort! xxx |
