It does!!! Thanks so much. Such a beautiful flower and I’d never seen it before. I’m changing my blog to reflect its name. I appreciate your helping me to id it…J
I’m terrible at IDing flowers. Birds and creatures, I’m fine, but plants — unless it grows in a pot indoors? Hopeless. This one is not only beautiful, but WOW what a color!

Beautiful and I can’t identify it, but will try to find it. Sometimes your photos throw me off when I don’t know the real size. Thanks.

We have lots of them in our garden, and I keep forgetting their name so it was good to remind myself!

I forget names I’ve know for years… both flowers and friends…and especially singers and movie stars who are very famous…an added benefit of aging.
