Preparing for Winter: What plants Live well Together?

I am moving into an apartment with more limited deck / window space. As such, I'm trying to consolidate some of my plants into big pots (sorta a mini-bog sorta deal).

Some were pretty obvious -- my Pygmys are all in one big 8" pot now, with the butterworts hiding in the corner. My Drosera adelae and Drosera spatulata are in with my Drosera capensis 'Alba' in a 7" plastic fishbowl.

What I have left outside right now is my first Venus Flytrap, 2 White Trumpets, a S. x 'Judith Hindle', and 2 S. Purpurpea.

I have a nice 8-10" pot awaiting plants, but I'm not sure which ones to pop into it. I'm in Idaho, in either Zone 6 or Zone 5, depending on who you ask. I figure I will be leaving the VFT outside, and the Judith Hindle is kind of rootbound -- would those two work well in a single big pot?

More importantly, the idea was to leave this pot outside all winter. Will White Trumpets and Judith Hindles survive outside in zone 5-6?
