This is a flower I´ve seen a few times, twice I think, on blogs and loved it. When I run into it in Honolulu Zoo I was happy. Sadly it was almost overbloomed and not much to photograph.
I was trying to find seeds of it but it is a bush not suitable for my balcony or the climate where I live. Well, at least I have seen it. And got these shots. :)

It is such an unusual flower. I love it! Great photos!
ReplyDeleteRiktigt trivsam även som överblommad.
ReplyDeleteSagolikt vacker blomma!
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful shots, particularly the first one!!
ReplyDeleteVackert och vilken mild fin färg på din blomma!
ReplyDeleteI think that it is still pretty. The older I get the more I admire fading flowers (I suppose there is a deep dark reason for that!)
ReplyDeleteThat is one nice flower. I like how the petals curl back.
ReplyDeleteThis is not a plant I am familiar with, what a lovely colour.
ReplyDeleteThis flower is new to me.
ReplyDeletethanks everyone. :)
ReplyDeleteHow very gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to grow tropical plants in my frozen desert, and it can be very frustrating. So your gorgeous flowers are a very welcome sight, even though you had to leave them there.
