What's "new"?

I'm amazed at the wealth of good "Mediterranean"
plants that have come into the California nursery
trade in the last few years.  Is it my imagination or
has the nursery industry really taken the innovative
course of late.  

The only down-side that I've noticed (since I've been
in the nursery industry some 34 years) is that only a
tiny percentage of the new stuff stands the test of
time.

What have you all found that is "new" to the nursery
trade?

And, maybe more importantly, which of these, in your
humble plantsperson opinion, are going to be the next
nursery "commodity" item because they are simply soooo
fabulous in looks and performance?  Which will be
tomorrow's classics?  Be brave.

Thanks,
Joe
