Plant identification

I looked very closely at my seed packets and am pretty sure of two of the three mystery plantings and therefore the third is probably the cosmic orange as I saw a hint of "carrot top-like" leaf on the packet as I see coming up everywhere. I suspect this is the cosmic orange as it is the only other flower I planted in numerous locations. The first of the two "sure" flowers is the Nasturtium. It has a lillypad-like leaf where the leaf is flat, horizontal to the ground with the stem of the leave coming from the center of the leaf rather than the normal location of it coming from one end. The other "sure" flower is the 4 o'clocks that start with two rounded leaves and then start sprouting out more pointy leaves from the center. Yay! How exciting!
