Toedtoes, I am also in zone 9b in Redding. I grow or have grown everything you mention. My front and back yard are xeriscaped. My only comment on your selection… Salvia spathacea prefers more shade than sun. Plant it in a shadier spot or where one of your other selections will provide shade.

Other hummingbird magnets I grow are Salvia clevelandii, Lobelia laxiflora and several mounding manzanitas such as 'Big Sur' or 'Sunset'. It's so much fun.
