These were all the plants in New Orleans Square and they weren't included: http://www.plantsofdisneyland.com/disneyland-plants-trees-flowers-landscaping-books-new-orleans-square.cfm

No, there's nothing on these plants from that site. These are probably only planted for the fall season...

This looks very similar to your other Alternanthera spotting. Do you see anything on the Disney site that looks similar.

Could be A. dentata, this site has a picture that's very simila: http://plantsarethestrangestpeople.blogspot.com/2007/11/practical-joker-alternanthera-dentata.html I didn't see anything on Plants of Disneyland...
