Today's Flowers

A few flowers today for you that I took while visiting Bloedal Conservatory in Vancouver.


I think this is a Hibiscus flower. Please correct me if I am wrong!!


A few blossoms from a tree, not sure at all what kind they are, except pretty!!

I think this is a Lily of some sort. I like how the petals reach up and the flower's stamens go down.

    That is a very unusual and lovely lily!

    I think you're right about the first flower, that it's a hibiscus, a beautiful one, too.

    Those are gorgeous. And you are right the first one is hibiscus or in the Philippines we call it "Gumamela". The 3rd one is very pretty!
