Lantana "Lavender." I bought this as a tiny plant several months ago and have waited for it to bloom. It's a compact lantana and I have it in a hanging basket. The flowers truly are lavender.

Plumeria beautiful, most also have a wonderful fragrance.

The two blue plumbago shrubs are covered with light violet flower clusters. The butterflies love this plant.

Loropetalum (Chinese fringe flower). Blooms mainly in spring but mine shows intermittent flowers throughout the year.

Re: Random and miscellaneous perennials
The yellow Esperanza is very common in my area, but not so much the Bells of Fire Esperanza. This compact variety can take full sun and heat. A favorite of large bees and hummingbirds.

Re: Random and miscellaneous perennials
I have this as well and love it. It’s in bloom 9 months of the year, no pests, drought tolerant and can be pruned any way you like.
My resident female hummingbird works it over constantly.
