Hi all

Can someone please i.d these two?
Taken at Shellness,Kent today.

I do apologise for the quality of the pictures (or lack of it).

Many thanks Kev.

Hi Kevin, not much help but the first looks like a Stonecrop or Saxifage

Kevin.
1. is Greater Sea Spurrey - Spergularia media. Occasionally has white flowers.
2. is Common Sea Lavender - Limonium vulgare. Often used in dried-flower arrangements.

Steve, agree they are very similar, but Lesser very rarely has white flowers, which are smaller, with petals about half the length of the sepals.
