How can you have a winner if the judge doesn't even know the right or wrong answer? :shock:

The more I look at this plant the more I say this is alligator weed. Look at right stem and see how flower originates from bud at leaf node. Leaves are opposite to whorled sessile.

The first picture is certainly purple ammannia (Ammania robusta) or aka toothcup. The second appears to be eclipta (Eclipta prostrata)
