Found this lovely display at a local garden this morning. Just wondering what they all are?

Thanks, Sue!
Do you know what the tall one is? Is that some kind of sempervivum or sedum on the bottom?

Yes, looks like sedum at the bottom and some kind of elongated Kalanchoe. Maybe
Flapjacks (
Kalanchoe luciae
)
or
Paddle Plant (
Kalanchoe luciae subsp. luciae
)

That's interesting about the Kalanchoe--I'm not familiar with that kind! The sedum is very pretty. I wonder what kind it is?

It is a pretty one, with serrated edges it looks like.
