Please help me ID 3 plants in my yard

Sorry for the lack of photo of the flower, I took a couple but they came out really blurry. Esh, thank you for the info on the native Trillium. We have cleared about 1/4 acre ivy from the property (without chemicals, just by pulling and digging!) - although not in this area - and I'm keen to include a lot of natives as we plant....See MoreHelicopter Plants?

Does that look like it ? patty...See MoreSucculent ID -- Help please :) -- Plant #3

Not sure if photo is clear enough, the flowers are whitish pink.Sowmya K (San Jose, CA)
11 months agoI got few more photos of #2, now that they started producing seeds. I am leaning towards Chenopodium Murale based on wiki listings under Chenopodiaceae family:
