Basically I have a rose garden which is pretty well along and looks good etc. I have some blank spots in the garden which I need to fill in with some extra color. The flower needs to conform to the following perameters please:
*Max height of plant: no more than 1 ft
*Prefers Full Sunlight (it gets hot here)
*Preferably likes a semi-moist soil (it would match the other watering needs of it's neighbor plants)
*Ideally it would bloom from Spring to mid / late summer
All suggestions are appreciated, if possible please link to pictures.
Many thanks in advance.

Check out www.burpee.com. I would suggest lantana or verbena. They both bloom profusely, don't have a lot of mess and stay low to the ground. Lantana comes in bright colors like oranges, yellows, and some with all that and hot pink. Verbenas come in purples, pinks, and I've even seen white. Check your labels, because some get bigger than others.

What about Lavender shrubs? Also some succulent and cacti have awesome flowers and colours and are pretty much 'maintenance free'.
