    ok, I see these are 5 pix. Left to right.
    1 /
    2 looks like Phlox. A less 'fluffified' species or variety.

    IMO, your pic is very good quality shot of the flowers!

    3 that lower petal is smaller than the other 3. That should be a 'giveaway' to its family or genus perhaps.

    4 ?? not Xylosma

    5 This looks like plant in the Boraginacea family. Often have blue flowers. This has very compact Scorpoid infl. :)

    6 4 petals not fused, 4 stamens. That's as far as I get on this one.

    7 This pic reminds me of Datura or Brugmansia. But the 'bunches' of fl in web pix seem too dense compared to your pic.

    Maybe solandra, which I think I've never seen IRL. Check http://www.csdl.tamu.edu/FLORA/mi15/mi15078.jpg and other pix in http://www.csdl.tamu.edu/FLORA/ftc/dft/imatxsol.htm. www.csdl.tamu.edu/FLORA/ mi15/mi15073.jpg. But all of these fl look too open (large, wide) in their 'tube' area.

    Try some searches.

    #3 looks like Bacopa to me.
