The one to the left is an African violet. I believe the one on the right is called a monkey or monkey's tail. The whole stem should be covered in leaves though, not just the last inch or two. It's in pretty sad shape. They both are actually.

The violet just needs the dead flowers removed and a African violet fertilizer applied. Water from the bottom occasionally. Allowing the plant to absorb the water. Place in bright but indirect light. It will bloom again.

The other plant I believe is a Jade plant. A succulent that needs less watering allowing the soil to dry. It likes direct light. You could try trimming the tips of the plant to encourage branches to grow from the sides. I am not sure this will work but anything is worth a try. Good luck.

Okay thanks ladies I appreciate all the information. She's 96 and couldn't remember what they were and wants to bring then back to "life". Fingers are crossed.

The others are Kalanchoe, not jade.
