What are these flowers?

Not the best picture in the world (besides the azz)..but here's my best attempt:

This appears to be late spring (June)..

Center: Leucanthemum vulgare - Oxeye Daisy
Bottom Left: Aquilegia hybrid- Columbine (not sure on the cultivar)
Upper Left: Tanacetum parthenium - Feverfew (not 100% on this one)
Middle left (Plant with round seed heads): Celandine species? It's very hard to tell.
Bottom middle: Either Saliva nemorosa or Veronica spicata (very hard to tell without seeing the leaves)
Middle right: Nicotiana x sanderae (??) once again very hard to tell. I'm not confident with this answer because all of the plants in the picture are perennials (well, where I live) except for the (possible) Nicotiana.\
I can't identify the fine textured plant in the middle right.

Hope this helps
PS This wasn't googled...it appears other were (after reading them) and some are definitely incorrect. I forget to mention that some of these plants are classified as invasive so you may want to research them a bit before planting - I assume this is your intention. Good luck.

Then if you're good join Myspace's "PLANTS" group or if you're hardcore join http://groups.myspace.com/HARDCOREHORTICULTURE

Update: I'm still not convinced that the purple inflorescences are of a Lavandula spp. Mainly because of the timing of the other flowers (again, I'd put it in early, early June (depending on the location) and from my experience growing lavender/lavandin both commercially and leisurely, they typically bloom later in the month of June. Pluussss I rarely see lavender/lavandin in such a perfect cluster (well, unless you're in Martha's garden), this is more typical of Salvia/Veronica. Regarding the assertions of the white flower being labeled a "Shasta" daisy, I'm still not convinced mainly because of the short length of the rays. I've grown many different cultivars of Leucanthemum over the years and Becky, Alaska, and other "Shasta's" typically have longer and broader rays than the Oxeye Daisy. It's hard to know without seeing the leaves. But..I digress..many of you may be right because it's hard to judge scale in this photograph and after all, it's a designed flower garden. Truthfully I'm too lazy to go upstairs and get out books that discuss exact bloom times in my area to indepthly analyze this..ah anyway..I'm going off my head and educated guesses.

They are columbines, a member of the buttercup family. The most familiar ones are blue, but there are pink and red ones, also.

Definitely--- the pink and white ones are Columbine which are identified by the leaves. Have lots of volunteer Columbine plants scattered around my gardens.

The white ones are daisies/Shasta or asters, the blue ones are some kind of Salvia, the others (Violette-white) are called columbines and the grey one is surely called donkeydonk .
