I'm getting ready to start rehabilitating the area behind my house from the years of neglect that a foreclosure brings. There are a couple plants that I would like to ID to see if they are anything I would like to leave in place. I know the previous owner had done the landscaping, and according to the neighbor it looked really nice at one point. The few years he has been gone, things went south pretty quickly.

Picture 1&2: Low creeping plant red/burgundy leaves about 1/2 dollar sized. I'm *fairly* sure it's not poison ivy, but I don't know.

Picture 3,4, 5, &6: Big shrub front and center. Has a thick central trunk with many branches just above ground level that go horizontal and then up. Green bark with white streaking. No flowers yet.

Picture 7: Kind of self explanatory, light green low lying. It doesn't look terrible, but there is a lot of it. Knowing my luck it's some terrible invasive variety.
