RC,

Great macro shots! First two, Hollyhocks? I'll have to try that shot tomorrow.

Excellent close-ups!

I particularly like the lighting/shadows in the second photo...very nice.

It's a different world in macro. That third photo could be any number of things.

I moved to my new place in June, and finally have lots of space to grow flowers galore and have a garden full of veggies. Only problem is....I dont think I have a green thumb...I have a tuff time keeping house plants alive. I am here on this site to learn as much as possible. My husband just bought me a portable type greenhouse...but I have no clue how it even works. Yikes. Also...I am interested in recieving these seeds you mentioned. Thank you. Kim

I can't say as I've noticed any fragrance from the flower; that's the first thing I checked for, actually. When my E. calochlora flowered, I remember that bloom having a nice scent. I'm also allergic to tree pollen this time of year, so I probably can't tell either way at this point. It would really be interesting to experience the scent of this species' bloom; maybe next year I can have the plant inside so I don't get such bad allergic reactions! :)

I varied a special recipe posted here some place for citrus. Take a multivitamin for 2 weeks, then collect a quart of your urine. Put it into a 5-gal bucket of rainwater, or whatever you have with 2 Tablespoons of Epsom salts. The citrus I have in the ground burst into bloom and a tremendous amount of new growth (leaves). The blooms were pollinated, but the little fruits did not hold on to the trees. Thinking of trying Color burst for blooms on flowers, to see if I can get some more blooms.

Hi CandyD The name on these "the tag in them when I buy them" is Salvia. I don't know if they have a sub-name or not. I know next to nothing about flowers but I am begaining to enjoy their beauty more, as each year of my life goes by :) Thanks for looking in :) john

Thanks guys. Macros really do make for a world of their own.

The first two are hardy hibiscus and the last one is a closer in shot of the center of a coneflower like I posted the other day.

Ok, same family. The Mallow family.

Macros without anything else in the shot to give them perspective makes them very hard to make Id's from. Getting in the mallow family is pretty good!
