The first pink perennial was spotted near UBC, NW Marine Drive. The second, sedum-looking one was seen on the Sunshine Coast.
1. and 2. Looks like Chamaenerion angustifolium, previously called Epilobium angustifolium. Common name Great wollow herb. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epilobium_angustifolium It has just finished flowering. Shortly all the seeds will be released and blow away in the wind. http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ep...&source=og&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi&biw=1270&bih=501
So nobody can confidently ID this one? I tried to find a "Sempervivum" in Pojar and Mackinnon's "Plants of Coastal BC" but there wasn't an entry for it. I would be surprised to learn it is a non-native, since I found it on a cliff face, growing with Sedum oreganum, and could not see any other non-natives around it....
You might have misunderstood Ron's post above -- he said it was a Sedum, but with a few more words. Sedum lanceolatum, for comparison.
