Midwest Gardening

Pull or leave identification of plants

sorry these are out of order

I am new to the Midwest (St. Louis area). I purchased this home at the end of last summer, beds looked good. I have been cleaning up the beds preparing to edge and mulch.

Big problem I can't tell what's what when it comes to small plants. Do I keep these or are they weeds? There are twelve photos in my Gardening idea book I will try to add photos.

Try the Name That Plant forum. The experts there will have them all ID'd pronto!! And it is easiest if you only post a couple of photos per request (you can request as many times as you like) as it gets very confusing with multiple plants.
