The big difference is the weather...
I don't think many Virginians would anticipate orchids blooming year 'round in the front garden.
A personal favorite, this is one of the hibiscus we have in our nursery. FALSE BLUFF which is tethered between the sea to the east and a lagoon to the west. A boat ride from the lagoon up our private canal brings visitors to a world of unimagineable beauty.
