begonias would be a good annual for such a condition. Iceplants would make a good perennial, as would sedums.
This may be of use:

xeriscaping is gardening in hot dry climates. So searching for xeriscape plants would be your best bet.

Rhudebeckias or black-eyed susans only require an inch of water a weeks. Of course I live in michigan and an inch of rain in a week seems dry to me
