New place, wanted to go the no-lawn route. However, some of these plants I am unfamiliar with and wanted some insight on if they are invasive/poisonous. A couple of them look scary lol.
I numbered them all to make it easier.
I believe 5 and 6 are the same plant.
Thank you!

Florida 9a, most of these I’ve seen around before but the ivy, nettle-looking plant, and the nightshade looking plant I am worried about… my dogs don’t mess with them, but I want to make sure just to be safe.
Have you tried an app for identifying plants? I use iOS app PlantNet.
10 looks like Virginia creeper, native but idk about toxicity
2 looks like doubtful knight’s-spur
Marijuana
6 looks like Solanum americanum- American black nightshade. Native
I’d double check to make sure it’s not Solanum dulcamara – climbing nightshade (invasive) although I believe it only produces purple flowers?
3 is evening primrose I think
First pass.
Edit: updates made. may come back for no.1
1. after comparing on iNaturalist, im thinking false button weed may be it.
2. wait till it flowers. Guesses in thread are good, but there are other similar plants that are often included in wildflower mixes.
3. horseweed, not horese tail. flip those all the time.
4. correction Virginia pepperweed, related but more likely for the region.
5. nightshade
6. nightshade
7. think your likely right with Mexican ruellia
8. mix of dollar weed and woodsorrel(clover like)
9. Tomatoes
10. Virginia creeper
11. some type of thistle, Nuttall’s Thistle looks like a good fit.
12. creeping beggarweed
13. sow thistle
10 is Virginia Creeper and I am allergic as all hell to it! Be careful around that jabroni!
2 looks a lot like mammoth dill, does it smell like dill?
I’m also in Fl 9A and #2 looks like dogfennel to me. It can be abundant in disturbed areas.
