Wow! The one on the bottom is really cool!
The first is seaside heliotrope (Heliotropium curassavicum var. oculatum). Not sure about the succulent, probably an escaped or planted exotic.
Thx, Mike. I see an irrigation hose, so this may be in someone’s garden that RK failed to tell me.

Beautiful! I'm guessing you know how much I love new flower discoveries! :D
Yup. The heliotrope was found by one of our wildflower enthusiasts. She also found a new one last year. I think it was an orchid? Very unusual one.

We’re supposed to have a rare orchid in our area, but so far it’s been elusive! It’s fun searching though!
I have the very same bottom one in my garden, but I don't know the name. It gets huge and will consume a space if it's allowed to! Yep, the soaker hose gives it away as a planted succulent!
I love looking for plant names! The succulent here is called Pig's Ear, which I've never known even having grown it for years.

Thank you, JJ
I was able to pass on your info to Rock Knocker.
