    Quick guess ....

    Pine of some sort
    Aquilegia
    Fern
    Strawberry ... or Geum?
    Carnation

    That's pathetic first attempt but I'll come back.

    I've looked again and I can't add anything further, I'm afraid.

    I've said Strawberry/Geum because I have a Geum that everyone thinks is a Strawberry ... photos when it blooms.

    I think roders may be right with the Rosemary but haven't got a clue with that little thing in the front or those plum coloured leaves.
