As this topic is a bit quiet (probably the time of year), does anyone fancy having a go at this?

These three pictures are the centres of well-known flowers.

Can you name them?

err I think the first one is a Morning Glory or is it called Passion flower?

Bliddy hell Mons ... I were goin' to say that :evil:

Quite correct ... a passion flower

You may need a clue to the other two:

No.2 ....... flowers in early spring.

No.3 ....... It's not strictly the centre of the flower; that actually IS the flower but we never think of it like that.

No. 2 - Tulip

Is it a hydranga

by **Guest** » Tue Aug 22, 2006 9:47 pm

Not hydrangea, not a tulip.

No.2 ....... the flowers appear before most of the leaves.

No.3 ....... doesn't grow in this country, mine was a houseplant (Lost it :sad:

The third one is surely Bouganvillea

You're right, June.

Just no.2 left now.

The most common one of these is the white one.

Don't know why in my last post it referred to me as 'guest'. :roll:

Is the second one a Hellebore Monika?

Well done, June.
