No idea on the first picture, is the second Water Forget-me-not - Myosotis scorpioides
? The flowers appeared too small and I didn't recall Myosotis scorpioides having hairy leaves.    |

1. Thyme-leaved Speedwell Veronica serpyllifolia
2. One of the Forget-me-nots
3. Can't tell what the main stem is but to the right of it is Marsh St.John's Wort Hypericum elodes. |

Could the second be Tufted Forget-me-not (myosotis laxa)? Though I'm not too good on the differences between the Water and Tufted........ |

That was the other possibility - Tufted has smaller flowers for sure...not sure on the hair on the stem etc |
