#6 is a coneflower
"Coneflower is a common name of at least four genera of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae:

Dracopis
Echinacea
Rudbeckia
Ratibida
"

Probably Echinacea or Rudbekia - very similar

Thanks George. I hope some of them are coneflowers but at this stage its really difficult to guess!! Only one plant has flowers and it looks like a white alyssum - which is usually treated as an annual
I can differentiate between some of the green leaves but I'm blessed if I can identify them yet. Some look like dianthus deltoides, as for the rest -something to look forward to in the spring

#2 looks like Cerastium Tomentosum (Snow in Summer like you said, VC) - if it IS CT make sure you plant it where you can isolate it from the rest of the garden as it is VERY invasive.

I don't mind invasive, George, most things here end up going mad
Here are some leaves for you.........some subtle differences but many look the same.

I have my doubts about the first one, bottom left, white flowers - it doesn't look like Cerastium Tomentosum, more like a Galium, possibly Galium Odoratum (Sweet Woodruff)?

The confusing things is........the photos in the offer are not necessarily the plants that are sent - they are just examples of what you might have!! I have Sweet Woodruff and the leaves are very distinctive - none of those in this mystery collection

Wow - that's a real lucky dip

Number 3 could be Achillea. Closeups like that are not very helpful, are they!
