    Need help Identifing plants?

    I need help to identify some plants so I thought this might be a good thread. Just put up a picture of it and let everyone help. If you can give the name and if it is edible or medial or poisonous. I have a lot of plants that even with looking at the picture in a book, I still can't tell for sure what it is. Some plants have look a likes that are poisonous.

    Here are some I need help on:

    Which one are you talking about? Is this the one?
    I looked at buckhorn but mine has fat short leaves and they are dark green.

    I don't think this is red clover as it has purple flowers.

    Is this the buckhorn?

    The fourth one looks like "Lamb's Ear"

    I don't know about it's properties, but it will propagate something nasty if left alone...

    I thought it was Lambs ear too but it is very large leaves and I have been watching it since last spring and I have never seen any flowers. It is fuzzy like Lambs ears and it stay
    's green all winter even with snow on it.
