The ferns look like ostrich - they do indeed pop up everywhere when they are happy! Should be easy to move some.

no, its not tho..Believe me I have them all over my yard and its not Rudbeckia Hirta Indian Summer. These flowers are small and NOT darker in the middle as the Indian Summers are. But I went out and measured and I was wrong about the flower size, they are only 1" across. Here are two more pics, one of the other side of the plant, and a close up of some flowers. I have no doubt that it is in the Rudbeckia family, but its a bush...not at all like my Black-Eyed Susans. It's not like I cut it back and it just went crazy and sprouted a million flowers, I havent cut it at all. What's really stumping me is that it's more like a bush..this is one whole big plant and only has one main stem.

I think number 2 might also be a geranium. By the way, the scientific name is "geranium", these are not the same as the summer annuals that are red/pink/etc. and sold by the name Geraniums. Those plants are Pelargoniums. Here is a link that might be useful: Geraniums

I can't tell if your cat is an inchworm/looper, Siam, because I can't see the legs. There are many caterpillars that look similar to that one, with many of them being inchworms, but the one thing they all have in common is they they tend to be generalists, and they become small, plain moths. I wasn't familiar with C. intermedi, so I looked it up. It's in the aster family, and it sort of looks like a cross between a stokes aster and a purple thistle - the flower and even the leaves on the plant are beautiful!! Sherry

Never mind on the yellow flowered one..I think I have figured out it's an anemone.
Thanks

The yellow one looks like a buttercup to me. There appear to be reflexed sepals below the flower. Ranunculus species. Not Anemone ranunculoides, although the name of the latter tells you they are superficially similar. Whether it is a weed or an intentional planting depends on the species. It seems to have a very lax habit. Is that how it grows or has it been disturbed?

Flora UK, I don't know..it is at my sister's house and she bought it late last fall, so this is the first she is seeing of any plants. Probably wilty from lack of water, lol..she's not a flower person..yet, lol. Her DH weed whacked it yesterday though. Who knows if it will come back...hopefully it will, bigger & better.
Thank you..after looking at some pix, I believe you are correct.
