The plant seems to be showing heat related issues.
A few of my plants do the same thing when it heats up.
A contributing factor could be the black mulch heating the soil.
While I am a fan of black mulch and have used it for years I have noticed it heats up pretty quick and kills plants. Go out and walk on it barefoot.
The heated soil will cause root issues which can have an adverse effect such as what you are seeing.
If the plant is newly planted within a month or two(like the photo from your other post) the root structure might not be developed enough to support the plants water requirements in the added heat.
From the photo the rest of your plants express that it is pretty hot in Sacramento.
Prolific Bordelons are an awesome ornamental plant and once established in your garden will provide great color and texture.
