These pictures are all of red deadnettle (Lamium purpureum) but the 2nd and 5th ones, which are of henbit deadnettle. The two deadnettles, which resemble very much, grow in a short distance, so I compared them with focus on the flowers closely (1st and 2nd photos). As you can see, the flowers look almost the same, so the easiest way to differentiate may be their leaf color. Henbit deadnettle's leaves are green while red deadnettle's are, as the name suggests, reddish. Because of such resemblance, I often mistook red deadnettle for henbit.
