Default Can You ID These Flowers?

Please help me ID some more flower types photographed
around L.A.

I begin with two views of possibly the same flower. I'm
pretty sure the first (A) is a bud of the blossom (B).
You can see both he

The second flower is shown from a bunch that my niece
wanted me to buy her for her recent birthday:

Finally, here's a flower I see EVERYWHERE in Los Angeles.
I've only seen them in purple/violet and white versions:

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help.

I believe your flower is a Dwarf Crested Iris. If you want me to I'll try scanning the picture in my book. The name of the book is Ortho's "The Complete Perennials Book".

That was for the first pictures. I've seen the others but haven't found them yet.
