Kell, the hanging pink flowers around the orange hibiscus are Polygonum (persicaria) orientalis. They start blooming in June here, and grow up to 10' ft. It's one of my favorites, the large leaves look tropical and have an interesting collar-like growth appendage where the petiole attachs to the main stem. Easy and reseeds but not invasive here. The plants branch but do not over shadow surrounding plantings. Excellent companion for brugs and cannas for color and contrast. I have seeds if you would like...
