    Hi, the first one could well be Salvia nemorosa. The second photo I wouldn't like to say, the third could be Miscanthus underplanted with Anemone x hybrida 'Honorine Jobert'. The fourth is Persicaria.

      The second grass could be Calmagrostis x acutiflora 'Karl Foerster'.

        Re Persicaria affinis - It isn't invasive in my garden, it just stays where I planted it, forming a little mat. However, I suppose in some situations it may become invasive.
