Your photos amaze me. I see 2 little ducky faces.What's the name of these flowers?
How do you tell which is the Mr and which is Mrs? So cute and presume they are distant relatives of Mr. & Mrs. Potato-head?
Hi Sharon. Thank you for your kind comments and I'm glad you enjoy the photos as much as I enjoy sharing them. They do look like ducky faces, don't they. Thanks for the observation. Not sure about the names of the flowers .. will try to identify them. Moggie, any idea?
The good doctor mentioned it was a something Lantana.. can't remember what that something was.
I love you pictures Ladyhawk... they are always so refreshing, I can almost smell the flowers and feel the dew. xxx
Hi Madwag!! Glad you enjoy the pictures. It makes sharing them such a joy.
DM .. I too remember Dr L say something Lantana but not sure what.
hahaha...it really looks funny!reminds me of Nobby with a gag on him mouth.
i may be wrong but i think it's a type of milkweed called asclepias. i was told that it's sap is pretty poisonous, so.....tamau main!
how u know they are flowers?They could be aliens waiting there disguised as flowers waiting to invade the world n since the sap is poisonous that maybe their weapon rite?????
