Thanks

Compare to Sedum acre for the yellow-flowered sedum.

EDIT: Oops, I swear there used to be two questions in the original post, one about the ID of the yellow-flowered sedum in the background... or maybe I'm cracking up, LOL!

Green plant reminds me of one of the Amorphallus' - Konjac was the one I had - but if you had that, you'd know because you would have had to have planted it.

The other one looks like a jack-in-the-pulpit or a dracontium-type relative. That bud coming up under the leaf should answer any questions about it.

Sorry, it is only one plant. I was trying to send 2 snap shots but it didn't work.
The plant is actually growing over my fence, which has a tree border. I have cut the barb wire and cleared a spot and have been adding surplus plants over there. I saw this plant this morning, it wasn't there Sunday.

Pagancat, I think you maybe right. I googled Amorphallus' and there was a large variety. The one I have growing does have a shoot coming out at the base just like the ones I just looked at. If that is what it is, I am definitely going to dig it up and plant it on my side of the fence. (LOL)
