Can you identify these two plants? The second one has a tiny red flower, does the first plant have flowers?

Any ideas gratefully received - thanks.
Got me stumped GD
I think the second one will be easier to id when it flowers, may jog someone memory
It appears that everyone is stumped Perki - incidentally the second plant is flowering now. If you look really closely you can see two tiny purple/pink flowers - to me it looks like a plant that dies down in the winter, but a name would be helpful to be able to check whether I am right. Thanks for the input anyway.
No idea on No 1
No 2 hemerocallis?
Can we have a pic of the actual flower on No 2 ... we might stand a chance then
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Ha, I would if I could Dove, one fell off - they are tiny and insignificant - there are two in the above photo - one to the left and one just above centre - they are tiny and very dull purple. The leaves look so lush - the flowers are rather disappointing.
I have googled Hermerocalis Hostafan - the leaves may be similar but the flower isn't big enough.
There were plenty of succulents in the collection I was given, but I am don't really think plant 1 is one of them. I will have to plant them soon, perhaps I should prune no.1 plant down to encourage a more dense growth?
how big are they? (pot size would do) A photo from a different view might help with 1. as well
In the sticks near Peterborough
Yes, I will try to photograph them again this afternoon - that may help - different angles etc.
2. maybe a Spiderwort?
