Hi, Emile! It's a Duranta plant. A tropical plant - can grown to 10 or more feet and is considered a perennial in your area (So. TX) - most other areas (like mine in Central TX), it dies back in the winter and if the winter's not too cold, comes back in Spring. A beautiful capture of it, Emile - looks fantastic flowing over the white wall! (Monarchs love it!) #11530412

I love the look Emile. First of all the colors draw us in, love that purple. Then that textured wall really is most perfect to show off the flowers. It sure is a gorgeous sight. #11530514
