    I work at a College and the horticulture club was cleaning out their warehouse by giving out free plants. I took five, but only know the identity of two. Can anyone help so that I may give them the proper care?

    Glad you were able to post a few pictures:)

    The first and third plant look like the same kind, some kind of Plectranthus. Not sure on the middle one though.

    Okay, now that I've established that the two outsides are the same and what they are, I just need help with the middle plant, here are more pics of it.

    2. Looks like dogwood, Cornus. Suggest you try the dogwood leaf test.Hope this helps.
