Verbena
Like Lobelia, it is a ground-covering trailing plant that flowers continuously during the winter. It is very susceptible to mealybug and does not like overwatering (likely to die suddenly). It has clusters of small flowers, mainly in reds.
However, "Desert jewels" variety is much hardier, flowers much better and the plants are much less attacked by mealybug. The plant looks quite different with fern-like leaves and the flowers have less vibrant, more pastel colours. See below:
