A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Plants and Flowers Forum Mystery Plants? What flowers?

Hello again!

I saw these gorgeous huge flowers the other day. They're not wild; someone unknown planted it. I believe it's a vegetable of somekind, but I'm uncertain what it is exactly. It has large, broad leaves. The flowers are about 8 to 10 cm across. Here's the link:

Photos number 12 and 13.

12 and 13 flowers look like Pumpkin Blossoms.

Hey thanks for the help! =)

Your quite welcome NUR,

Pleased to meet you.. What country are you in?

Hi Nur! Definitely in the squash/cucumber family

wow those are nice

i agree! looks like pumpkin, but i can't see the leaves well enough.

Hi Dodge.. =) Nice to meet you too! I'm from Brunei -- a country in Southeast Asia, a neighbouring country of Malaysia and Singapore.

Thanks, Suzydaze! :wink:

Actually, I was focusing on the flowers more. I was so amazed to see such huge flowers one morning. I'll try taking some shots of the leaves.

Nur,
thanks for joining us. We have a lady here once in a while an she is from
Malaysia......She does trade with us here.

Keep the photos and questions coming.....that is how we all learn.
I am from country.

Thanks for the warm welcome, Dodge. Actually, I used to hang around here a lot some time last year -- always asking for help with plant identifications. I've been very busy, and hence the reason why I was away for quite a while.

Oh, you mean Norhaini? Yep, I do know her.

Nur

When I seen that name, it did strike me you used to be here.. But I did not want to say so..

Yes it is Norhaini. She is quite good to me.....Lots of times I feel bad, my seeds do not get to her .. She seems to understand.
Lovely person

Oh I see..

Yep, a nice person she is indeed.

....emmm i do hope so!! Hey..thanx zillions u two!!

BTW dodge i did receive quite a lot of seeds from u...only d geranium cuttings didn't reach me in time... they did eventually...when they were already dead black....

well..i believe if something's not meant for us...it just wont come to us.... never worry... what is meant for us will eventually reach us...s simple s that!!

Have a nice day both of u...n everyone too!

Hi ya, Noria, Long time no see....

What is bloomin out there now? We are just getting rid of snow, I see some flowers coming up.
I did tell tk to send the cint,, something to you , guess she didnt read that.

Nur .We found her ..

its o.k dodge...s i mentioned just above ...if something is meant for us ..it surely will come our way...if not...it just wont...no worry...b cheerful always!!

My sentiment exactly! :wink:

Yep. Hehe..

Now I agree only half way in what comes to us.
That is true in life and gods work.

But in service preformed by mankind which we pay for, and they get paid.
It should come to us.

I send something to California cross country the fartherist from Penna.
3 days is all it takes.
I send mail to someone in Arkansas or texas, it take a week.
Now that is a different story..
I hate when I dissappoint nml like that.

In a way, you're right, Dodge.

Personally, I think, we just have to try our best, and hope for the best. And if things don't turn out the way we want to, then, it's okay -- just never give up. *lol* Reminds me of Dory in 'Finding Nemo' when she says, "Keep on swimming, keep on swimming.." Love that fish!

Okay, see you all around ya! :wink: :ding:

Does that mean I am a real sucker?
