We report the detection of two new planets orbiting the K giants HD 86950 andHD 222076, based on precise radial velocities obtained with three instruments:AAT/UCLES, FEROS, and CHIRON. HD 86950b has a period of 1270$\pm$57 days at$a=2.72\pm$0.08 AU, and m sin $i=3.6\pm$0.7 Mjup. HD 222076b has $P=871\pm$19days at $a=1.83\pm$0.03 AU, and m sin $i=1.56\pm$0.11 Mjup. These two giantplanets are typical of the population of planets known to orbit evolved stars.In addition, we find a high-amplitude periodic velocity signal ($K\sim$50 m/s)in HD 29399, and show that it is due to stellar variability rather thanKeplerian reflex motion. We also investigate the relation between planetoccurrence and host-star metallicity for the 164-star Pan-Pacific Planet Searchsample of evolved stars. In spite of the small sample of PPPS detections, weconfirm the trend of increasing planet occurrence as a function of metallicityfound by other studies of planets orbiting evolved stars.
