It is a Common zinnia.

Scientific name: Zinnia elegans.

An upright annual flowering plant with branching green stems and opposite, simple leaves. The leaves are broadly ovate to lance-shaped, smooth-edged, slightly rough-textured, and arranged in pairs along the stem. The flower head is a composite inflorescence: a rounded central disk of small yellow to reddish disk florets, surrounded by showy petal-like ray florets. In the pictured form the ray florets are bright magenta-pink and layered in a semi-double to double arrangement, giving the head a full, rounded, daisy-like appearance. Mature plants commonly reach about 30–100 cm tall depending on cultivar, with solitary flower heads held above the foliage..

Zinnias are excellent pollinator plants; their open flower heads attract butterflies, bees, and other beneficial insects, and they are often used in gardens because they bloom heavily through warm weather..

The visible flower has the classic zinnia structure: a bright pink composite head with many broad ray florets, a yellow central ring of disk florets, and a deeper reddish central disk. The surrounding foliage shows opposite, simple, entire leaves that are typical of Zinnia elegans. The garden setting and presence of a rounded green flower bud also fit cultivated zinnia. The image is somewhat blurred and only part of the flower is visible, so cultivar-level identification is not possible, but the plant is very likely a common garden zinnia.

It is a Common purslane.

Scientific name: Portulaca oleracea.

A low, sprawling succulent annual herb forming a mat close to the ground. Stems are smooth, fleshy, often reddish to yellow-green, and radiate outward from a central crown, rooting at nodes when in contact with moist soil. Leaves are thick, glossy, hairless, and succulent, usually obovate to spatula-shaped with rounded tips, arranged alternately or in small clustered whorls near the stem ends. Leaves are bright green, with entire margins and no obvious petiole. Small yellow flowers, typically with five petals, appear singly or in small clusters in the leaf axils or at stem tips; they open in bright sunlight. The plant may produce small capsule fruits containing many tiny dark seeds..

Common purslane is edible and unusually rich in omega-3 fatty acids for a leafy plant; it has been used as a vegetable in many cuisines around the world..

The plant in the image has the key traits of common purslane: prostrate, fleshy, smooth stems; glossy succulent oval-to-spatulate leaves; clustered leaf arrangement at the nodes; and a small yellow flower visible near the lower left. These features distinguish it from similar lawn weeds such as spotted spurge, which has thinner, non-succulent leaves and milky sap, and from clovers or oxalis, which have compound leaves rather than thick single succulent leaves. The mat-forming growth habit in disturbed garden soil is also typical of Portulaca oleracea.

It is a Lupine.

Scientific name: Lupinus sp..

A herbaceous legume with upright to slightly spreading, softly hairy green stems. The leaves are palmately compound: typically 5 to 11 narrow, lance-shaped leaflets radiate from a single point like the fingers of a hand. Leaflets are light to medium green, often slightly fuzzy, with smooth margins and pointed tips. Mature plants produce vertical flower spikes or racemes bearing pea-shaped blossoms, commonly blue, violet, purple, white, or bicolored. Each flower has the typical legume structure with a banner petal, wing petals, and a keel. After flowering, the plant forms small, hairy seed pods containing hard seeds..

Lupines are members of the pea family and can form root nodules with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, helping enrich soil by converting atmospheric nitrogen into forms plants can use..

The clearest identifiable plant features are the palmate, star-like compound leaves with several narrow leaflets and the small blue-purple pea-type flower visible near the lower center of the image. These traits are characteristic of Lupinus, commonly called lupines or, in some regions, bluebonnets. The image also contains large heart- to shield-shaped leaves from a neighboring plant, so the identification is made from the lupine-like flower and compound leaves rather than those larger leaves. Because the photo is somewhat blurred and shows mixed vegetation, I can identify the genus with moderate confidence but not the exact species.

It is a Candied jalapeño peppers.

Scientific name: Capsicum annuum.

A preserved food product consisting of sliced jalapeño chile peppers packed in a dark, syrupy brine inside a glass jar. The visible pepper pieces are curved, glossy, dark green to olive-green strips or rings with smooth, slightly wrinkled skin and paler interior flesh. Small, flat, oval, cream-colored seeds are suspended in the liquid and attached to some pepper fragments. In the living plant, jalapeño peppers come from a bushy herbaceous pepper plant with smooth green stems, simple ovate leaves, small white star-shaped flowers, and elongated conical fruits that mature from green to red..

Jalapeño heat comes mainly from capsaicin concentrated in the pale internal ribs or placenta of the pepper, not primarily in the seeds themselves, although seeds often carry capsaicin by contact..

The jar contains green chile pepper pieces with many pale, flattened seeds typical of Capsicum peppers. The visible label text indicates candied jalapeños, and the shape, color, and seed structure match sliced jalapeño peppers rather than cucumbers, olives, or other pickled vegetables. Jalapeños are a cultivar group of Capsicum annuum, the same species that includes many sweet and hot peppers.
