Please help identify weeds in my yard

[a5fung]

I have these growing all over my yard, I wonder if they are edible for torts? I also have dandelions, but those are easier to id! Thanks!

All of them are edible, but I don't know what the second picture is. It may be 4 o'clock, and I don't know if that is edible or not.

Thanks Yvonne! Looks like I have a lot of food growing in my yard.

I think 4 o'clocks are on the "no- list"

I used the Garden Answers app and submitted the (2nd) picture to confirm. I searched for the pictures for 4 o'clock and they don't seem to match what I have since mine never flowers (or at least I haven't seen any). It gets quite tall too, 4 feet or more. I'll post back when I find out what they are.

The second one is an Epilobium, or whatever they're calling fireweeds and willowherbs at this point.

You're right, this is also the reply I got back.

I must admit that Willowherb was what came to my mind when this was first posted but, being from another country, I assumed it wasn't. Sorry.

We have all the European weeds here in North America...
