Your Best Flower Shots

No idea what this plant is. I should really find out, but I get a new one every year for the porch.

I found this in my dad's backyard.

Do you call them plumeria in Florida? I know that's their botanical genus but we (in Oz) call them frangipani.

In my experience, it is called frangipani in countries of the British commonwealth (Australia, India, etc.), and plumeria in the US.

If I don't get the shots I want with the gear I have, the only optics I need to examine is the mirror on the bathroom wall. The root cause will be there.

I wouldn't say this is my favorite, but I like the ant climbing up the side of the Indian Paint Brush.

It was a dark day, but these still had a glow about them.

I see. Thank you.

Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

Pretty sure it's a variety of coleus.

yes (re coleus ID). we have half a dozen varieties - they're remarkably large this year.

Thanks to you too daleg. I've bought them every year, but just by site. Never knew what it was, and when I replanted it, I toss the tag without reading it. Need to stop doing that.

I've heard them called both plumeria, and frangipani here.
