Need plant I-D please.
Hello, I'm new to this forum and pretty new to gardening.
I moved into a property late last year and for the first time since I was a kid, I have a garden, which I'm very pleased about. I'm doing a gardening course next month but in the meantime I'm learning what I can from the internet.
I'm sure I'll have lots of questions, but firstly I want to find out what plants are in my garden, as I say, I'm a beginner and pretty much clueless to what everything is.
I took some pictures today and will attempt to post one below. I'm not sure of the etiquette of this forum so will post one for now.
Do people mind me posting a lot of pictures to find out what plants are? Should I stick to one plant ID per thrread or just shove as many pictures in as possible?
Thank you in advance for your help or feedback.
Cheers Jack
here's (hopefully) the photo I want IDing thanks....

Second request, ha! Does anyone know how to put an image direct from photobucket in a post, I'll try one more time.
I recognise that one but am struggling for it's name - I'll ponder and meanwhile someone will come along and beat me to it - think it has yellow daisy-like flowers?

Light is dawning - think it's Brachyglottis

I haven't seen it flower yet, it's very pale underneath, with a thick gnarled bark.
The first one looks like a senecio, now called brachyglottis. yellow daisy type flowerered shrub.
2nd one a variegated pieris.
3rd one looks like umbrella papyrus aka Cyperus alternifolius
Oh, that was fast thank you.
That's Senecio 'Sunshine', unless it's name has changed which I think it might have.

Yep, I was right, it's called Brachyglottis (Dunedin Group) 'Sunshine'
