Pollinators Garden - What is this plant?

in homesteading •  7 years ago 

Today I got to leave the hospital for a little while to go to work. On my way out I noticed some bees on this plant. At first I thought it was a Salvia, but the flowers look different than other salvia plants that I'm familiar with.

Can you identify this plant?

For reference, if it helps, this is landscaping outside of a hospital in San Antonio, Texas.

The plant is simple and attractive. I'd love to put some on the Daddykirbs Farm for the bees and butterflies.

What a beautiful flower, in my country, Venezuela, it is known as Gardenia. Planting plants is leaving traces in life, traces of good, who plants a tree or a plant, will always be remembered by those who take their shade or are recreated with the colors of their flowers. You, sr @daddykirbs is one of those people who sow life through their farm and the knowledge they bring in their videos.
