Yes, the orange sedum is called Angelina.
The pink? one is tradescantia, or widow's tears.
I made the mistake of planting the variegated snow on the mountain in a shady bed and it completely took over. It has taken me several years to finally get it all out. But in the right spot it is very pretty.

Just now getting caught up on all the forums, all your flowers and plants are just beautiful! Guess they didn't mind all that snow. It made for a wonderful surprise this evening. I would have never have guessed the names of all your flowers, I am unknowledgable...is that a word?? I have a few of the same...the Spiderwort, but mine are white and the creeping phlos...I was wondering what they were called! Mine have not bloomed yet, zone 3 here if we don't have a really bad winter! But sometimes I have even lost zone 3 perennials! keep up the good work
