The last one is one of the Holly Ferns, Cyrtomium falcatum or perhaps C.
fortunei, we have the latter coming up in any suitable place here as we have
a large one by our pond, originally bought as a "tropical" house plant but
planted out about 20 years ago as I had nowhere else to put it. Will get cut
back, go brown, in a hard winter but seems to come back OK.
