    Plant identification (any botanists on deck?)

    Making an herbarium for my botany class, and I've got it all down, except for plant identification. It's not a field botany class, so we haven't done anything with identifying individual plants or anything of the sort.

    Pics aren't of the best quality, but if anyone can point me towards the right direction with finding a name (even a common one is fine, as I can google from there), it'd be appreciated.

    Pics

    Spoiler: show

    One of those looks like common Dill. Another looks like Cilantro. Sorry, I'm not ponied up on my plant biology but location sort of matters.

    One of those plants looks like a dandelion leaf. lol

    That or maybe a strawberry spinach, I know those also have broad, serrated leaves.

    That fern might be a boston fern, but it's kinda hard to tell a lot of ferns apart. Boston fern is a very common houseplant though, as well as grown outdoors.

    And the three lobed leaves look sorta like a flowering maple, but that's hard to tell for sure. are those red things at the tips new leaves, or flower buds?

    It would help a lot if you could get pictures of the entire plants though, as it's a lot easier to identify a plant if you can see both the leaf shape and the overall growth pattern and size of a plant.

    Picture 20 is a fern of some sort.

    Are these all Florida based? Like things you gathered in your town (HomeDepot)?
