Need help identifying a number of plant/flowers
Comments (17)Everyone has been so helpful, so I thought I'd return with another unidentified flower. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ericmmartin/3365604150/ This flower is so pretty, I'd love to know what it is! I still am not sure what #13 is from my previous post, if anyone has any ideas. Appreciate the help!...See MoreNew house and yard, need help identifying all these plants
Comments (8)Grassy plants in 'B' is Liriope. C - the 5th photo looks like heavenly bamboo (nandina domestica) - a small cultivar, like 'Gulf Stream' or 'Harbor Dwarf'? Hard to see if the leaves are tri- pinnate in the photos. D - Aucuba japonica 'Gold Dust'. Prefers shade. Leaves burn in the sun, may be what the black leaves are, but I can't see enough detail to tell. E - Crepe myrtle - the flowers are too out-of-focus to be certain, but the distinctive seed pods cinch the crepe myrtle ID for me. F - second photo is an oak seedling. I don't think the 'holly' is a holly - at least, not an Ilex aquifolium or I. meservea. The new growth is purple, and not enough points on the leaves. G. Photinia doesn't have purple flowers. It has tiny white, wild-rose flowers in a cluster. The close-up of the groundcovers appear to be a morning glory (Ipomoea). I - the middle photo is photinia. The best photo you have of that shrub. Excellent focus, great lighting. K - I agree - some kind of maple. Opposite leaves cinch the ID. What's the deal with the tree stakes? N - could be a juniper. The photo is so washed-out and out-of-focus, it's hard to see detail, but I think I see one blue juniper berry on it. If it is a juniper, it will have 2 different types of leaves on the same branch. Juvenile leaves are needle-like and mature leaves are scale-like. Almost all of your photos were washed out, out of focus, or did not show details necessary to make a good ID. I agree with FataMorgana that you should post each plant separately. And take the photos early in the morning when the light is soft. At a minimum, you should take photos of the complete plant, the bark on the trunk (if it's a tree or shrub), one branch, a close-up of the tops and bottoms of the leaves, and a close-up of the flowers. Other characteristics of the plant that stand out, such as purple new growth, or fruit/seeds are helpful. Also, some plants have milky sap, chambered pith, hollow stems, etc., that are unique. Finally, some plants have distinctive scents when the leaves are crushed - yellow cedar smells like wet hay, incense cedar smells like...well, incense. Clerodendron leaves smell like peanut butter. All this information is helpful in identifying a plant that we can't touch, smell, or see with our own eyes over the internet. But conduct these examinations at your own risk- milky sap can often irritate the skin, and some plants have hairs that cause itching (itching powder that was sold in the back of comic books is actually the hairs from the big-leaf maple seed pods), for example. Have you considered asking a local County Extension agent of Master Gardener to come over and ID your plants, or take samples to their office or a local nursery? It's going to be painfully slow for you doing it this way....See MoreI'd appreciate it if someone could help me identify this plant?
