Hi , what is the name of the shrub behind you ?

[@life-landscapeintegrityfil6821]

If the shrub you mean is the one with the large sea green leaves and round gold flowers, it's Palmer's Indian Mallow (Abutilon palmeri). It's excellent for hot inland areas. Here's the link describing it on Calscape.org, the best website for info about California native plants: calscape.org/loc-California/Abutilon%20palmeri%20(Palmer's%20Indian%20Mallow)?newsearch=1
