Hi KT,
The first one looks very like Osteospernum to me but I'm not certain. The secon does too but again I'm not certain  |

No. 1 is Star of the Veldt, Osteospermum hyoseroides (I've also seen it called African Daisy or Cape Marigold, more in garden-centre terms)
There are various cultivars of O. hyoseroides, but I don't think dark blue as in No. 2 is one of them; at a wild guess, possibly Brachyscome iberidifolia? It's an Australian plant, and I think the common name is Swan River Daisy?
The third one looks like a cherry - as for which species,... pass!! |

I would say that number 2 is Cineraria (Pericallis x hybrida) |

Number 3: the fruit of some sort of flowering cherry - you know, the sort that produces masses of beautiful pink blossoms for a day in spring, before heavy rain or hail smashes it all to a brown pulp in the gutters!
