Here is #2....I've seen it before, but don't know what it is. Will it get more branches and grow tall? If I know what it is, I can look it up!

Funnily enough, I've just been trying to figure out the differences between the three that really look alike. From what I can see in the picture, I'd say that one is Erigeron strigosus. But you'd really need to see the stem/leaves more closely to be sure. (E philadelphicus - leaf bases clasp the stem; E. annuus, pretty hairy, leaf bases don't clasp the stem; leaves mostly toothed; E. strigosus, stem leaves mostly narrow and not toothed, hairs short and laying flat(strigose). I think I see a lot of narrow toothless leaves in there. WW

The last time I checked they were known as Solenostemon - but most people know them as Coleus. They can be used outside as bedding plants and they'll tolerate sun so long as they're watered. If you want to keep them indoors you can take cuttings and they will root in water. It pays to nip out the little flower spikes that come from where the leaves join the stem - usually toward the top of the stem. The other plants - in Pic 2 - look very much like begonias. If you were to take a section of the plant which has roots and potted it up in a half-depth pot you'd likely find the leaves would be larger and there would be less trailing stem. They like good light but prefer to be out of direct sun.

I agree on IDs for 1 & 3 by Microthrix and 4 by tea tree. On #2, how large is the rosette? As Zech said, it is an Aeonium. It could be 'Zwartkop' or another hybrid. It may or may not branch, depending on which it is. Yes, it can grow tall (3 or 4 ft), now so if PIG (Planted In Ground).
