I'm beginning to redo our garden and need your help with identifying existing plants left over from the previous (now abandoned) ornamental garden.

I believe this is just some weed.

About to start flowering. Completely disappears underground during winter and sprouts out again in spring.

Very tiny (2 inches tall) with light blue flowers (already done).

My wife says this is Geranium. Has small purple flowers (already done).

I don't believe this was intentionally planted.

This must be some well-known herb, no?

#1: Campanula, probably poschkarskyana
#2: Lotus (scientific name) from the fabaceae family (there are no "weeds" in my book: most of these plants are even considered medicinal herbs)
#3: probably acanthus
#4: probably some species of thyme
#5: yes, geranium, they come in different sizes and forms
#6: probably golden rod
#7: could be satureja or thyme
#8: coreopsis?
Not sure about the next two. Have you tried one of the Apps to identify flowers, like Flora incognita?
I have heard they are pretty good (from people using them in Germany).

No. 9 could be oenothera perennis, but I have never seen it with my own eyes so I am cautious...
