I love lantana. It's too cold up here to grow it as a perennial, but I had a pot of lavender lantana in my sunny kitchen long ago. I love the smell of the crushed leaves!Just discovered this thread. Not much if a green thumb here but fortunately lantanas are practically idiot proof
I have yellow and lavender lantanas in a different part of the garden but I just refer to these as Fiesta lantanas

California poppies (2nd pic) r one of my fave flowersSaw a couple fancy lupines at a local public garden near Lake Merritt in Oakland. I’d pass on the first but desperately want the second in my garden.

My favorite among ones I’ve grown is called Cobb Mountain lupine. Hard to find in cultivation but sure did enjoy growing it When Annie’s annuals and perennials had it for sale.
