Plant identification help
Hello, 
I am curious what these plants are and I was just wondering if anyone had any idea because I cannot seem to put a name to them. The first picture was taken last month and they were very low growing, the second one I found out walking, I don't think it was planted, I also wish I looked closer because im not 100% convinced the flower is from the same plant as the leaves. Any help would be great, thanks

1st one is often called Pride of London as it popped-up all over the place in the east-end after the blitz. Looks pretty when there is a big patch in flower.
2nd is a kind of spurge that I'm sure will be named by a spurgeologist here soon

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
The top one is a saxifrage, the bottom one , one of the euphorbia family.
Thank you!
Saxifraga urbium is the posh name for London Pride. Useful little plant
I'd like to become a 'spurgeologist' Pete - is there an exam you can sit?
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Just look on ebay

it would take a top class spurgeologist to ID the species/cultivar
the flower, as you suspect, isn't from the same plant Emmalily
