There’s a great app for your phone called iNaturalist, that can help ID plants free.
Looks like Verbena to me. I have a bunch in my flower beds.
Thanks everyone for taking the time to respond! Love hometalk folks!
I'm in agreement with everyone who said lantana—specifically Lantana montevidensis. It is a trailing perennial hardy in zone 8 and warmer, growing 12 to 18 inches high and spreading a minimum of 3 feet. Flowers are usually violet, but there is also a white cultivar. Lantana is a genus in the Verbena family.
