Plant ID

EddieleeEddielee Posts: 7

I have two plants one is not in flower so ID might be tricky the other is like an osteospermum but leaves are different 

want ID as I have these both in full sun most of the day and they don't seem to be doing well

    The first could well be a phlox 

    The second one looks like a Cineraria

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    Thanks first one spot on only flowers feb to may so that's why its dying off think I read you just cut them down after flowering second one not so sure can't find any phlox similar

    I think the one in the 1st photo is phlox paniculata which will flower June ish to Sept. and is happy in full sun or with a little shade

    The 2nd and 3rd look like cineraria which are often sold as pot plants and I don't think they;'ll like full sun all the time.
