Here is one that is very common where I live IN L.A. area.
Agapanthus, also known as African Lilies and Lilies-of-the-Nile
Tall and Purple bunches of flowers.
ALONG the freeways they use FREEWAY DAISIES and White or pink Oleanders/Oleander pospolity Nerium oleander.
In city limits, most medians contain grass, with a selection of annulas such as pansies, begonias, osteopspermum etc & some perennials like agapanthus, daylilies, or small boxwoods.
In the centers of state and federally managed highways in California, oleander is the most common shrub for Southern California and other plantings would be wildflowers such as the California poppy which can be sprayed on roadsides in a green solution periodically to fill in gaps. In desert areas and in Los Angeles & San Bernardino counties, iceplant and other fire-resistant plants might be used.
The best show in California is all along PCH or Highway 1.
