Flower of the Day for a year - a Challenge!

[veggiechicken]

My Flower is a Pencilled geranium/cranesbill (geranium versicolor) I think.
I'd class it as a wildflower as it just appeared and is spreading very slowly. The flowers are small but intricately marked and you have to get up close and personal to appreciate it.

Ai have a pink and a purple one ^^^^they are fab for growing anywhere!

Some dahlias for me as Ive missed a few days...another of the Sam Hopkins for Rary...I think it's more open? They last ages in the garden

I had to wait for the sun to come out to photograph this one, Osteospernam or Cape Daisy.

I managed to take a photo of my flower of the day before the rain started this morning ,not sure the proper name of Bush, but I know it as Chinese lantern, and this s the second flowering this year
I will take a photo if it he bells open up

Had to goggle that one, rary! Looks like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crinodendron_hookerianum and rather nice too.

My flower is one of the begonias from the great Begonia epidemic that caused a rash of begonias across the UK.

Mine is a poppy...self seeded. Love this one!!

^^^that's a nice poppy Scarlet and a great begonia VC, the begonias that I caught in the epidemic were fibrous rooted
My flower of the day is geranium or to save any confusion a pelargonium


Oh and some begonias similar to the ones I got in the epidemic

Another Salvia macrophillia, this time Hot Lips. The colour is interesting as it changes with the temperature. The hotter it gets the less red until the flowers are white and when it gets colder the reverse happens leaving red flowers.

Reminds me of a lesson from school about word of mouth where a message sent" Send reinforcements we are going to advance" finished "Send three and four pence we are going to a dance"
So rather than a Chinese Lantern it should be a Chilean Lantern

My Flower is another Begonia that survived the Great Epidemic.

A rose off one of my standards.....still repeat flowering!

My Flower is a French Marigold in need of deadheading

[cheops]

A variety of Goliath lily called ‘Pretty woman’ which offers up a wonderful heavy scent to all who pass by.
