I was going to be cheeky and say that your first photo has about 14 species in it one of which is bindweed. The bindweed is a rampant climber that has trumpet flowers, some people recommend this for tortoises and some don't.

Apart from the chickweed I don't think these plants occur natrurally in the UK which might explain some of us not knowing them (well thats my excuse anyway).

You're right, that would have been cheeky. ha
