Hi - does anyone recognise these 2 plants please (first 2 pictures of the same plant)?

    The first one looks like the foliage of the little evergreen helianthemum aka  Rock Rose ...

    The second pic looks like it may be bacopa still struggling through the winter.
    If you can keep it going, trim back in the spring and it'll flower again in the spring/summer. But a hard frost will kill it

    You can collect the seeds from the bacopa, sow in March indoors. Lots of plants for free. 👍🏻

    Thank you - that's really helpful. I guess the bacopa has survived because we haven't had a frost yet.

    I've still got one too with a couple of sorry looking flowers on.
    I had a few coming up between the paving slabs on my patio this year and one grew about 2ft wide along the base of a step - it looked really effective.
    Snow and frost forecast for here tues/weds, but some usually survive to bloom again
