    I think the second one is an annual, although the name escapes me.

    The first photo, l'm not sure. It looks like a cross between a Vinca and a Campanula and my instinct is that it's a perennial of some kind.

    The first one looks like bacopa and is perennial. I have one in my garden in my rockery.

    @louise.colley Second is Felicia amelloides. I would try to keep both under glass. With milder winters it is well worh having a go. They will need very little water.If you live in the south there is a good chance they will come through. Both are annuals but I have over wintered bacopa in the past.

    I've grown both
    Bacopa is a tender perennial. Sometimes it comes back for me, sometimes it doesn't.
    2 looks like a Swan River Daisy (BRACHYSCOME IBERIDIFOLIA) - again, sometimes comes back, often doesn't

    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    I was going to say Brachyscome for 2,  but Suze is probably right.
