Hi Mike,
The first two I'm betting are in the aloe family. The last one is a dracaena. I'm not sure about the middle one. If the photo were larger or clearer, it might help. Maybe in the haworthia family.

I'm very proud of the group's ID's. I've thanked everyone. Even though my pictures were bad and the ID's weren't totally accurate they pointed me in the right direction. I've handled the Euonymus and it is definately a Manhattan. I'd have to travel to Ohio in order to obtain higher res photos. My only dissappointment is on picture number 3. I realIze that my crappy photos contribute to my dissappointment. Number 3 just doesn't look like a Weigela.

Yes, the first one is an aloe of some sort I believe. I thought the second plant pic might not be good enough so I will redo it. Thanks for the ID on number three.

The first two are aloe. And this particular species is very good for medicinal purpose. If you take the meat of the leaves and apply that to any burned skin, it is very soothing and relaxing. After-all, it is 90%+ pure aqua.

Whatever it is I think it looks pretty cool and wouldn't mind having a start of it. Even if turns out to be a weed, it still is pretty cool.

It's not a weed. It is a succulant of some sort. It has recently bloomed so I suspect seeds are to follow. I am in North Richland Hills. Let me know if you are willing to come here.

What do you want in return? Check my list. I wouldn't mind taking a ride to NR Hills some weekend.

Mike, seeing a better closeup of the second plant, it could be a haworthia as was my first guess. go to this page:

http://www.succulent-plant.com/families/aloaceae/haworthia.html

scroll down to middle of the page, click on middle picture, labeled H. greenii. Does that look like it ?

Maybe, but that looks a bit different. Could it be growing conditions or same family, different species?

Frank,
Sounds like a deal. Let me investigate your offerings and get back with you. I am not real familiar with criniums but they look somewhat intriguing. I would be willing to meet somewhere if that is better for you since we are talking about a trade.

Mike, yes, could be any of your suggestions. You could view other haworthia websites and see if there's something closer in appearance to what you have. good luck !

The Haworthia genus has many species. Check this link:

Plant #2 could be Haworthia coarctata. Check the link below.
