    The second pic is called in Australia Kiss-Me-Quick. Centranthus ruber. It grows in the harshest conditions; cracks in urban pavements, under extremely dry shade, and flowers prolifically if pruned back after flowering or just as the new shoots arrive in spring. There is also a white variety, that looks stunning in drifts under ash and oak.

    I don't know the 1st and 3rd pics.

    Have fun,
    Earthworm

    The first looks familiar, but I just can't place it right now.
    The second pic is indeed Centranthus Ruber, commonly known as Red Valerian here. The 3rd photo is Coral Bells- Heuchera Sanguinea.

    The first picture looks almost like wild garlic or an alium. Is it a bulb??
