Sorry Zoey, for the delay in my reply.
It is hard to tell from the side photo, but I believe the flower is a type of Datura. Most likely a Datura fastuosa. This tropical plant is considered a tender perennial in zone 9-10, and it is commonly referred to as a Devil’s Trumpet. Although this plant is beautiful, it is also toxic! Keep pets and small children well away from this plant.
I hope this information was helpful.
Please let me know if I can help with anything else!
Can you help identify this flower? We saw this at a greenhouse but forgot to get the info on the tag. Love the structure and the coloring — looks like a Rorschach inkblot.
Thank you,
Dan
Daniel,
I believe this is a mimulus grandiflorus or Tiger Monkey Flower.
Thanks,

Hello, I need help identifying these flowers. I believe the name begins with a “c”. Thank you very much
Christopher,
I believe the flower is a type of Alstromeria.
Can you help me find out what kind of flower or plant this is?
MJ,
It is a type of Clematis.
What kind of flower is this?
I want to know the name of a daisy like flower that produces a small balloon like seed pod in the center and elevated. The flower is white. The seed pod is green when the flower is in bloom. The leaves are very fine ,soft and resemble the leaves of coreopsis and comos. When the flower is in bloom and the seed pod has developed, there is a three armed leave like sprig that grows from the seed pod. This is an annual that I was given some years ago. I saved the seeds. I have planted some of the seeds and they are till viable. It has been a few years since I planted seeds and seen the flowers. It seems to me that there is at least two rows of petals and the tips are pointed. When several plants were given to me the man called them “Angel in the Mist” or” Devil in the Bush”. I have done quite of bit of searching using the names and daisy like flowers to no avail. I hope that you can help me.

Jennifer,
That is a really interesting and beautiful flower. I am not familiar with the plant. I might be able to identify if I knew a few things about the plant. Is this from a tree or shrub? Is it blooming now? Where did you find the plant?
I really don’t know much about it Jamie….A lady from Tennessee says this is in full bloom right now . She claims it is a small tree. Sort of like a Dogwood Tree. To me, it doesn’t look real, but she swears it is. That’s why I’m writing you, to get your expert advice on this flowering beauty. I’ve searched and don’t know where else to look. I share different flowers with my friends every day, but this one has me stumped.

Can you identify this flower for me? It’s in the profile picture here. I took this picture while walking around Jerusalem. https://twitter.com/psyc100student
Great Clod,
I believe what you have is a passion flower. (Passiflora) Here is are two articles with more information and pictures of this flower.
Thanks so much Rachel. Yup it looks like the passion flower.

Hi Kathy,
I think your clematis is the H.F. Young or Fujimusume variety. If the centers of the flowers are bright yellow, it’s probably Fujimusume. Just from the photos you sent, I think it’s most likely H.F. Young.
Thank you so much for responding! I appreciate it!
Kathy
