Wild/garden/variant plants for ID please.

Basically cleaning up my files.
1. Northamptonshire, disused rail, a labiate and this is puzzling me or I am just having one of those moments... Hemp/white dead nettle? Very dried out plant.

2. Some garden plants which I am frankly pretty rubbish at still
Phlox?

3.
4. I see this one often

5. A friend found this, so I don't have any more of the plant, thinking either a small laurel or a holly var. Maybe not much to go on. largest leaves 7cm x 3.5cm.

1. I'm sure is a 'mal-formed' White Dead-nettle.
2. Garden half-hardy 'Geranium', strictly Zonal Pelargonium.
3. Poss Nemisia var. or sum-such. (one of a myriad of summer bedding plants now on offer which I can't keep up with. I sure someone will put me right!)
4. Daylily - Hemerocallis sp.
5. I agree on Holly. (they don't all have prickly leaves).

Cheers Dorts.
I forgot one I uploaded, planted on the edge of some grassland. If you could be so kind. Viola like leaves.

[Dorts]

Begonia semperflorens, a 'rooted' begonia, ( as aposed to those with a corm). A common bedding plant, also pink or red and some have coppery leaves.

3 is a Salvia- one of the Salvia greggi/S. microphylla group, a small sub-shrub. Hybrids are raised between these. Resembles the cultivar "Hot lips".

Unlike some of the central American Salvias these species tend to be relatively hardy (certainly in London), flower over a long period until the frosts come + easy to propogate from cuttings.

Thanks for the info, just did some googling on the cultivar "hot lips" and seems similar. Never had of placed it as a Salvia, looked a bit like a toadflax or something in flower shape, but there you go
