Smile New Ludisia and Unknown?

Hello,

Here is my wife's new jewel orchid we just got from a small green house yesterday! The other plant is a small clump given to me by the green house owner. It comes off a bigger plant that was given to him by another customer. He does not know what it is. Anyone have an idea what the second plant is? I have only found one image on google of what looks like it being sold as a jewel orchid in Australia.

Thanks for any input

Added note, green house owner had said the second plant blooms small white flowers.

The second plant is called Silver Squill, Ledebouria socialis. It isn't an orchid, but a very cute succulent.

Formerly known as (and still widely called) Scilla violacea. Names changes don't just happen in orchids...

Thanks for the I.D. on the second plant. Would have never thought it was a succulent.
