Fall 4 - a very rough guess - Oleaceae (if those are anthers?) ?

fall 6 looks likea feather of canary (but should be a colourful ornamental plant I suppose!)

Pine, you may comment on the first 3 pics then

I suspect that Fall 3 is truly a cactus, (Opuntia microdasys?)

Howevr Fall 4 is the most interesting, I can't figure out what are the prolonged structures (anthers/pistils/rootlets!!)

he he- fall 3 and 6: not bad!
Fall 4: it is a complete flower (San Anton Garden)
Fall 5: seed from a very attractive ornamental (not Magnolia)
