I kind of remember reading that the top 2 are okay, never heard of the other tho.
Sorry it's not much help when someone says ''I think''

but I suppose it's better than an outright ''no it's not''

EDIT> I did a search and Ozric Jonathan said

I just got one large low growing phlox, one large saxifrage and one large sedum album at B and Q for £5 total which was half price. These plants were in good condition, but no-one is buying now so they are going cheap. I also got a big Hosta that had been £5 .for nothing, the leaves have nearly gone because of the cold but its got a massive root.

so if he bought them they will be okay as he knows what he's on about with plants

Pericallis, this is what i have found on the plant, related to Senecio Vulgaris ( Common Groundsel. Which is toxic.
