#220193 - 07/05/08 09:06 AM Please help: What flowers are these?
Nur Nur Gardener Registered: 12/25/06 Posts: 153 Loc: Brunei	Hello everyone Can anyone please help me identify these flowers? http://picasaweb.google.com/Hafizah287/FlowersNeedingIdentification Photos #14 to #27 #14 and #15 are the same. #14 is a close-up on the flower. I believe this is a type of begonia. Does anyone know what species it is precisely? #16 and #17: the same. I think #22 and #23 are Peace Lilies, but I'm not very certain. Does #23 have a more specific name since it's pink in colour? Any suggestions and help are truly appreciated!

Here's what I think they are... #14-15 definitely a begonia - sorry don't know which one #19 - looks like a petunia? #20 - dahlia #21 - dianthus, otherwise know as sweet william #22-23 - yes a peace lily and the name of the pinkish one escapes me right now but I have one! #24-26 - zinnias #27 - plumbago _________________________ ............... stated by a very wise friend...

Nur Nur Gardener Registered: 12/25/06 Posts: 153 Loc: Brunei	I'm still quite uncertain as to what #1 really is, buzylady. However, many have suggested that it's begonia -- although they were unsure themselves. Well, I do think that it's begonia, though I still have to do some more online research to find out.

Jiffymouse Jiffymouse Momma Mouse Garden Helper Registered: 08/29/02 Posts: 24186 Loc: Effingham County, GA USA Z 8b	nur, anthurium is the proper name. the only common name i know is "little boy plant" because of the resemblance never mind. _________________________ it's not having what you want, it's wanting what you have ~ cheryl crowe in soak up the sun, a paraphrase of an much older quote

Nur Nur Gardener Registered: 12/25/06 Posts: 153 Loc: Brunei	Thanks for the help, Kenny! =) You're right for 9, 10 and 11. About #3, I'm not so sure. It's a type of weed actually, more like the flower of a kind of grass. And about #2, I don't think it's in the lily family, as this one grows on trees. Thanks anyway for the suggestions, Kenny! =D
