Hi Mads, your is an Edelweiss. (Leontopodium alpinum)
I don't know the other one and I am in the gardening trade. But I hope someone will.
Cheers, Ade.

Hi Mads, yes, that is right.
I went looking for one aged 20 on my first trip to Austria!
German Mountain troops or Gebirgsjäger wore a metal cap badge of this flower and still do today.
Cheers, Ade.
