    #1 looks like it might be day lillies or stella o'dora lillies

    #2 is a poppy, although I have never seen it in yellow.

    #3 is cranesbill geraniums.

    Hi

    Could #1 be Iris Cristata? How tall are the leaves? Iris cristata is 4-6" tall. Daylilies would be 12-18" or more tall.

    #2 I agree, it is a poppy of some sort. I grow them too & should know, but they came in a seed mix. They come up every year, but I don't know if they are annuals reseeding or perennials. I also grow Celandine poppy & I am pretty sure it is not that.

    #3 is Herb Robert, a perennial geranium relative: Geranium robertianum

    The Poppy is Meconopsis cambrica.
    The Geranium looks like Herb robert. G. robertianum as said.
