If you don't mind following the links, can you identify any of these plants? Thanks.

One and two are pics of a grass like plant I found growing in my garden. I put it in a pot and placed it where it is now, by the pond. Any ideas?

Three to five are pics of two small plants I bought cheap at a local store (Tamworth, UK) in tiny pots. They were damaged and i brought them home and re-potted them. The one with the spiky, aloe type leaves is about five inches high, the other about five or six inches high. Thanks again.

I think number 3 is a Dracaena compacta

I think the grass is a Juncus Effusus, try doing a Google image search and see if you think those pics look the same.

Thanks, Mr K . I had no idea what any of them were, nor where to start! You have given me some clues to investigate, and as i said before I shall post back should I find definitive answers. Thanks again.
