what is this shrub?

i love this plant, i just dont know what it is! it's not that i am lazy: i dont have any of my books over here in virginia...i do have the internet though...ok, maybe it is because i am lazy...this is a lovely shrub that blooms daisies in october! i have to water this woody guy (like a hydrangea) a lot during summer, so it cant be a native to this semi-arid area.
really pretty.

blooming postage stamps

they have been around for about a year, but i still love the idea of the blooming postage stamp put out by the dutch postal service. not that i am getting anything other than bills these days!
