Hah, soon as I saw it, and even before I read your comment, I was thinking Oleander. They sure are pretty! But you know, they’ve tweaked the Zone maps the last few years, and if you’re close enough to the ocean, it might work fine in your yard.

That stuff's poisonous. And a favorite landscaping shrub throughout southern AZ.
