Sorry to jump on the band wagon here. If anyone finds it, they'll be rich beyond words. And if they can do it on a dwarf shrub that grows in the shade (and is evergreen)... the riches are endless.
The best way to get flowers in your garden all year round (nearly) is to plan different plants to bloom at different times so that you have flowers all of the time.
We'd need to know which USDA hardiness zone you live in to help you with that.
Good luck-
I hope all the good natured pokes didn't hurt too much.

So far the only plant that I've found that has bloomed all year is the new Euphorbia "Diamond Frost". I got it about this time last year and I swear it has not stopped blooming! But then, I am in SoCal. Impatiens hardly stop either unless we get a frost.
Good luck :-)

Argyranthemums will also bloom year 'round in southern California.

You have to tell us where you live!! Year round bloom .........maybe 10 months in tropical climates, but in temperate......dream on! We might be able to supply you with a list of plants for successive bloom, but not year round.

Can you provide a steady temperature of c.32 & 20 Deg Celsius and at least 4 hrs sunshine all year round? Then all evergreen perennials will.

So is every other gardener. Let us know when you find it, because this is the Holy Grail of horticulture!
P.S. the lowly geranium comes about the closest. It will bloom all summer, and if you bring it indoors, cut it back, feed it and give it lots of light, it will begin all over again.

You just asked the multi million dollar question. There are people
hy-breeding away to find that. Until that magical day, most of us
are stuck with " seasonal " flowers.

Dianthus, they like cold & hot weather! But not freezing weather.
I don't know what part of the country you live in.
