Are these native plants? Bees like their flowers.
Could you please tell me the names of these plants?

Thank you.

The 1st one looks like an Eriogonum, a buckwhest. There are so many. The only one that color that I know is Eriogonum grande var. rubescens but I bet there are a lot more..

2nd one is Bladderpod due to its prominent bladder shaped pods. Cleomella arborea or Peritoma arborea
