I'm dedicating this flower for our dear friend, Skates. I love the cards she makes for everyone here. So this is my small gift to her. I like this unique flower (I don't know the name of this flower).
I don't know this flower either, but am wondering if it provides an edible fruit. Your photo provides a stunning display of color across the screen and the highly selective focus is perfect.
The flower doesn't provide a edible fruit and once this flower fully bloomed, another small flower emerges from it. You can see one such flower at the extreme right in this image.
My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . .
