I've never been to Italy, so I can't say for sure what your plants are... but...
The plant with white and yellow flowers is a composite in the family Asteraceae. It looks similar to Chrysanthemum or Bella, but I'm sure there are many other possibilities in Italy.
The plant with yellowish/greenish flowers is in the genus Euphorbia. It looks like Euphorbia commutata, but again, I have no idea what other possibilities exist in Italy.
Thanks for your input. I didn't even think to ID the little white flowers. I posted the second pic to give an idea of where I found the bright green unknown, along a path next to a soccer field. E. commutata is unusual: http://2bnthewild.com/plants/H524.htm Reminds me a little of miner's lettuce.

Hope this helps, a bit.

Yep, would agree with Scott, it's one of the Euphorbias, or Spurge as we would call the wild plant in the UK. Sorry can't be more specific :o(
Phooey, my reply to Scott got deleted when I transferred this post from my other blog.
This has been difficult to ID, mainly because I have to google translate every Italian botany site.
