Hello Drseuss (familiar, cat in the hat!) Groundhugging groundcover I should think, something like Cotoneaster Queen of Carpets, if it will survive your winters - not sure what zone you're in.
As for flowers all year round, that might be possible in the tropics, but not anywhere else! You'd have to plant a succession of flowering things, choosing those with longer flowering seasons, hopefully, so you've always got something in flower, except in midwinter.
