Help identifying plants sprouting around new fruit tree plantings

I recently planted seven fruit trees at my folks' property in northern Kentucky (zone 6b). They are all heirloom cultivars, an Arkansas Black, Fuji, and Grimes Golden apples, Methley & Shiro plums, and two grafted Paw Paws. My growing experience comes mostly from apprenticing on a nursery in New Mexico and I became familiar with the weeds and beneficial plants present in the high desert. Here I am unsure about many of the species I have found sprouting in the circles around the trees where I mulched and seeded with red and white clover. I'd like to know what they are before I start pulling and hope this is the right forum to ask. I've numbered each photo below to make it easier for responses.

Any recommendations on the best field guides or methods to begin identifying these on my own?

#1


#2

...plantain?

#3


#4


#5


#6


#7

Center frame, not the euonymus

#8

This and euonymus dominate the hillside. I'm told this species is invasive and metro parks actively try and eradicate it

#9

These 2 i have in my garden.

I use both in salads. Pileworth (Ficaria verna) i only use before flowers appear.


In frame 8? You have something that reminds of some specios of cress but i don't have the gang of it to enlarge the pictures. So i'm not sure.

I noticed a mistake in my comment nummer 8? = number 7. The cress it reminds me off - is cardamine or bitter cress in English. Looks like that plantfamiliy anyway. The picture does not show enough detail. If it is bitter cress - then it also good for salads.

1 looks like Virginia creeper. 2 is not plantain. It has parallel veins from stem to tip.

Number 3 is a wood nettle
4 appears to be a young honeysuckle
5 is wild mustard at the flowering stage, second year growth, and 9 it's also wild mustard in the first year rosette stage.
8i believe is the pilewort https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ficaria_verna
Also appears to be some common ground ivy growing with it

Eat up that garlic mustard! It's loaded with vitamins and antioxidants. You can also dry it and use it as a gomashio-like seasoning or infuse apple cider vinegar with the fresh plant (aerial parts).

2 looks a lot like calendula

5 and 9 are garlic mustard.  You may want to pull that out to keep it from getting out of hand.  Good news is that you can find recipes for it online.
