Thanks, Donna! Invasive or not, someone deliberately planted this one in his / her yard.

I had this flowering shrub growing in my yard in Florida where it is naturalized in the wild. It is in the verbena family, and is native to Mexico, South America and the Caribbean, but is widely cultivated as an ornamental plant throughout the world. It may also be considered an invasive in your part of the world. Very nice series.
