Thanks to Steve Frowlne for identifying this flower found in my friend Carol Lopez’s garden.

Here is a bit more information about it, thanks to Wikipedia: Hibiscus schizopetalus is a species of Hibiscus native to tropical eastern Africa in Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique. Its common names include fringed rosemallow,[1] Japanese lantern, coral hibiscus, and spider hibiscus.

It couldn’t be further away from Cee’s tulip that is her flower of the day.  To see hers, go here:

Another Mystery: Flower of the Day Feb. 29, 2016

At first I thought this was two different plants, a thunbergia twining through another.  But from the last picture, I can see that it is two different types of bloom on the same stem.  Does anyone know what this beautiful plant is?

Mum’s the Word?

The gift is nice, I must admit.  I really do adore it,
and yet there is one factor that prompts me to abhor it.
It might be a mum or on the other hand, a daisy––
and going back and forth between the two just drives me crazy.
I know it’s not a marigold and not a pink carnation,
but lack of knowing what it is gives rise to consternation!

With so few flowers to photograph here, I’m still relying on photos I took on Valentine’s day.

Have you ever seen a blue orchid? The flower vendor swore it was its natural color.
