No surprises when you cannot locate the Latin names which have been distorted by our own local languages. From top to bottom

Picture no. 2 is some Verbena
Picture no. 3 is Alternanthra
Picture no. 7. is Morning glory vine (Ipomoea)
Picture no. 8 is a chilli (mirchain) plant
Picture no. 9 is Portulaca, or also known as office time (in our local culture, since the flowers open and close during office times early morning to mid afternoon and sometimes the flowers don't open due to a strike)
Picture no. 10 is a variety of sweet potato (shakerqandi)

I think nanthera its local name.and alternanthera its full name.

Any ids about no. 4, no. 5 and no. 6?
