Pretty pink flax growing in my garden

I planted this pink flax in our new garden created right along the fence at the side of our house in Sept last year. I thought this was Evening Glow, but it might be Dazzler. Behind it I planted 2 pale pink Foxgloves, & 2 brighter pink Russell Lupins. Next to it, as a contrast, I planted a small shrub with variegated leaves & a small violet/blue daisy-type flower with yellow centre ...I think it starts with a B (Brachy ...something??) On the other side of this flax, I have planted a daylily in a deep burgundy tone with a greenish yellow running through it. Last but not least, there is a small pink rose & a large lime-green Euphorbia ...Martinii, I think it is called. Starting to grow up nicely now. Just a tiny area of this very long border, & due to my herniated disc, I have not been able to get out to do weeding & aphid spraying.
