Can you name these flowers..?

[andyoxon]

Both taken in cornwall... I have no idea, but Aster (for the second) springs to mind...

[nicknack]

Both are varieties of mesembryanthemum perhaps?

Think the top one _might_ be an osteospermum.

[Regulator]

The top one is called Dave, and the bottom one Felicity.

You nicked my line, you bugger

Ok thanks, it looks like Dave Osteospermum, and Felicity Mesembryanthemum then.   Google images seems to confirm this too... last names only though.

The bottom one is Lampranthus ( i don't know the species it's not often used). You often find it doing well in mild coastal areas. Not the hardiest thing in the world. Don't know the other one. Pretty though

'Dave' Osteospermum is probably Dimorphotheca, probably D. ecklonis.

'Felicity'?   Lampranthus is probably right - I was thinking some sort of Mesembryanthemum/ Delosperma/Drosanthemum succulent, but I'll go with Lampranthus.

Top one looks like Osteospermum.  Bottom one is Hottentot Fig.  Both South African in origin.  The latter grows quite freely at the Lizard peninsula and by the Lizard lighthouse.  I first saw it in Gibraltar.
