The first photo is a stonecrop sedum, a hardy ground cover.  The second and third photos show bee balms (monardas);  the red-flowered one could be one of several varieties.  Check at a large nursery and you should see at least one of the varieties there.  The magenta-colored flower is also one of several like-colored varieties of Monarda.  You should also be able to see monardas with this coloration at a large nursery.  All of these plants are hardy and long-blooming and will likely be good additions to your garden.  I'm attaching a link discussing various types of monardas.
