Your first image looks like the emersed form of mermaid weed, Proserpinaca palustris, with those saw tooth left edges.

Yes, be a lot easier to identify in a few of weeks when they have transitioned and are actively growing, not that I will be able to tell then either. Good to see you back!

Your first image looks like the emersed form of mermaid weed,

Proserpinaca palustris would have an alternative leaf pattern, ie 1 leaf per node.

It's probably aromatica .......as hippuridoides isn't that often available for sale.

Another big give away is the 3 leaves per node, true hippuridoides would have more than 3 per whorl.
