I have a few questions if you all don't mind!

Ok.....
First....Can anyone ID this?

I picked it up yesterday from my local garden centre for 1.99 as it had no
ID tags and the pot was damaged...
Its a wonderful little plant.....It looks just like a bottlebrush and the
ends of the spikes seem to shimmer in the sunlight!
Well worth the princly price I paid for it! B-)

Next question....
What is this?
I thought it was a rose....But after asking a couple of people they say it
isn't....

What is wrong with my potato?

One set is stems is obviously dying back....
But the rest are still very strong and healthy...
But the 'sick' stems are still coming to flower just like the others
And they are all from the same single seed potato......

Is this windburn on my tomatoes?

Thank you to anyone who can help!

Oh....And if anyone is curious here is a few pikkies of my 'newbie'
gardenners garden!
I am immensly(sp?) proud of it as when I got the house I knew very little
about how to do much of anything!
