Hello everyone [Smile] I found a few more plants in the backyard that I would like to identify. The first one seems to be a favorite for the local Bunny Rabbits or something. I have found about 5 of these in the backyard. This is the best looking one. The others are all chewed up. But it seems whatever is going after them is only eating the top leaves. you will see that in these photos too. Their also appears to be some sort of seed pod.

This one is popping up all over the place in the backyard. I have absolutely no idea what it is but it doesn't look like a weed. The leaves are really small and it seems to like my yard.

Thank You all for your input [Smile]

The second one looks exactly like my pomegranate plants. I've never been able to find much info on them,so I'm just "winging" it with mine.

In case anyone is interested. I found out that the second one is. St. Andrew's Cross (Hypericum Hypericoides). I think I will have to let this one grow. I look forward to seeing the flowers [Smile]
