Are sampaguita gumamela and eggplant shrubs?

Sampaguita (Jasminum sambac) and gumamela (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) are both flowering plants commonly found in tropical regions, but they are not classified as shrubs. Sampaguita is a small, woody perennial plant, while gumamela is considered a large shrub due to its size and growth habit. Eggplant (Solanum melongena), on the other hand, is typically grown as an herbaceous plant or annual and can also be classified as a vegetable rather than a shrub.
