First one could be Chlorophytum suffruticosum. Most definitely a Chlorophytum species, though.

I know the second one, but I can't think of it off the top of my head. I'll get back to you when I think of it if someone else hasn't stepped on by then.

The first one does look like Chlorophytum. The second might be some type of Crossandra.

That's it, HornToad! Crossandra infundibuliformis 'Lutea'.
