Hi Zoe and welcome to our forum!! The first image are leeks and the second looks like coriander, but I don't grow it so no doubt someone will put me right!!

First is definitely leeks, second, I`m torn between coriander and flat leaf parsely. If the flowers in the 3rd image are part of the plant in the second, then I agree with coriander.

I can see that now. The 3rd one is a prolific weed called Hairy Bittercress. Get rid of it.

Zoe, try rubbing the leaves between your fingers and see if you recognise the smell.

I`m going with flat leaf parsley, just to be bloody minded.
