The first plant (plant_1) has reddish stalks and looks like a mint.
The second plant has large leaves.
Any ideas?

The mint with reddish stems is...some sort of mint (Mentha).
What does is smell/taste like?
No descernable smell or taste.

The other plant looks like a some sort of burdock (Arctium sp.).
Bingo, Arctium lappa - L.
I don't remember planting it, and it certainly didn't flower last year.
Thank you, Pat.
