Yes they were hardened off before planting in the ground. The others are all okay. I wasn’t sure if I’d overwatered them. Hopefully they’ll still be okay then. Thank you @flounder for replying

I wondered if 1 and 3 might be astilbe. 4 looks a bit like creeping euonymus except the flowers make me think of spurge. 5 looks like the willow I have growing in the garden.
