I have many perennials coming up around the garden. I can usually recognise what they are...and many have labels that I put in the ground in the winter. But there are two that I'm unsure about. Maybe knautia? or a scabious? Japanese anemone? or have you any other suggestions? If it's a weed I would dig it up...but it LOOKS like it's something interesting.... here they are...   |

It reminds me of Potentilla, but I am sure to be wrong. You should get lots of answers CPB.

I'd say the second one was a Geum - it looks like my 'Lady Stratheden'. Not sure if the top one is a Jap. Anemone - mine have a taller middle shoot, which I can't see on your photo.
