    Nope. 'It's greenery' is about the extent of my knowledge on this subject.

    Can't help with the first plant, but the second looks like Gypsophila or babys breath.

    This is also my phylosophy on "Gardening".

    I do want to say they look very beautiful. My vegy garden down here in Naples is starting to get cooked by the tropical sun, we picked our last tomatoes yesterday. We now look foward to tropical fruit season.

    My guess on the first one would be a member of the Solanaceae family, based on the flower (a diverse family that includes peppers, tomatoes, tobacco, etc.)

    I agree with Sweeny79 that the 2nd plant is likely Gypsophila/Babys Breath.

    Hope that helps Maybe an uberbotanist will chime in???
