Camelina alyssum is a species of flowering plant belonging to the family Brassicaceae. Its native range is Europe to Caucasus. [1]
Camelina alyssum is an annual or biennial plant. They commonly grow from 20 to 70 centimeters tall, but occasionally will reach one meter in height. The stems may be unbranched or only branched at the ends and are smooth in texture or only have fine downy hairs at the base of the stems. [2] At the time they flower the leaves at the base of the plant (basal leaves) are usually withered. The leaves on the stems are variable in shape and may have an outline like a narrow spear head (blade lanceolate leaves), have a long rectangular shape (narrowly oblong leaves), or narrow like a blade grass with only a slight spear-point shape (linear-lanceolate). The leaves will have lobes that reach less than halfway to the midrib (pinnatifid leaves) or have a circular wavy edge (sinuate-dentate). The leaves may be anywhere from 1.5 to 10 centimeters long, but usually are 2.5–7 centimeters long. They are quite narrow, most often just 2–10 millimeters wide, but might reach 20 millimeters. [2]

Kalanchoe delagoensis, formerly known as Bryophyllum delagoense and commonly called mother of millions or chandelier plant, is a succulent plant native to Madagascar. Like other members of Bryophyllum, it is able to propagate vegetatively from plantlets that develop on its leaf margins.
Pedicularis groenlandica is a showy flowering plant in the family Orobanchaceae commonly known as elephant's head, little pink elephant, elephantella, or similar common names inspired by the resemblance of the flower to the head of an elephant. It is also less commonly known as butterfly tongue for the long beak on the flower. Like many other plants in genus Pedicularis, it is a parasitic plant and depends on host plants to survive.
Erysimum cheiri, syn. Cheiranthus cheiri, the wallflower, is a species of flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae (Cruciferae), native to Greece, but widespread as an introduced species elsewhere.

It is native to Europe, North Africa and Asia, and it is found in parts of western North America as an introduced species and sometimes a weed. This is a hairy annual herb producing upright stems up to about 20 centimeters tall. The leaves are linear to oblanceolate-linear in shape, 0.5-4 millimeters long and 0.3-3 millimeters wide. The entire plant is covered by 8-20 rayed stellate trichomes, giving the plant a grayish appearance. It produces small yellowish flowers with petals that are 2-2.5 millimeters long and round, notched fruits 2.5-4.5 millimeters long. The brown seeds are winged, arranged two to a locule, and are about 1.5 millimeters long.
