Faith, The two spp. are O. sternorrhyncha and O. purpurea possibly 'Garnet.' The latter has purple leaves that lay flat on the ground with a pink flower. The leaves emerge green, then become purple. Currently, I am letting them regrow a bit before flooding the bed and covering it with black plastic that will be sealed and secured around the edges.
