My back yard has no shade and gets very hot in the summer (100+). Any suggestions on what type of flowers to plant.

Marigolds, California poppies, ice plant, and bouganvillea do well. Plant some oak trees for shade, they are very drought resistant.

i use Mexican heather it has small purple flowers it is and annual but it does wonderful in hot weather also rose moss (portulaca) grows great in the heat just make sure to dead head it once in a while and it will last all summer
