Centaurea, Cephalaria, and Who-Knows-What


>Hi Susan,    I am wondering if the above listed Centaurea gigantea could be

Marilyn,

Well, now I'm confused (at least more than normal).  I have blooming in my
yard, a plant that I had labeled Cephalaria gigantea.  Photo at:

However, from your description, C. gigantea is the following plant:

plant ~3ft tall)

So what is the first one?  The flowers are like Doronicum (which I know is
isn't) or Inula.

I still don't have an ID on the following from earlier in the week:

Any good ID experts out there?
