Jørgen, these are called winter standers and distribute their seeds in such dried-up state. In fact, for #6, the mission is already completed.

Do you want their species names?

Oh well, I'll give them a spin nonetheless.

#1 is Epilobium hirsutum.

#2 is Artemisia vulgaris.

#3 is a burdock Arctium either A. lappa or A. tomentosum.

#4 is Typha latifolia.

#5 is the Common Reed Phragmites australis.

#6 as #1, after the mission of dispersal is completed.

Just in case you wondered what they were :D

Thanks a lot Bjørn, I personally have no clue about names other than #4 which I know as "dunhammer". I also didn't know they distributed their seeds in the winter. I just found them looking kinda pretty in the winter landscape.
