the last one looks like a leaf from some type of Geranium I've seen.

I'm curious about the second to last picture as well. I've got that near my place.

The last one is Mallow, I think. No idea about the first one.

We should start a forum or a gallery with just common weeds.

The first one is purselane. Its edible, but high in oxalates and shouldn't be fed too often. Don't know the second one, but it looks familiar and may come to me later. The third one is mallow, and is edible.

Yep. Pic four is mallow. My torts eat a ton of that from November to April or so, during the rainy season.

agree some type of portulaca for the first one. Think we answered this in another thread today. Purslane or Rose Moss...depends on flower.

I am rethinking that first one again.. It could be Elephant Bush Plant or Portulacaria afra. If yours doesn't have flowers then this is what I think it is. If it has flowers then it is either Purslane or Moss Rose

I'm pretty sure it's purslane - are the leaves kind of fat? Purslane is a succulent and a common weed this time of year in Arizona.
