What are the purple flowers that are circled in yellow, please? Not the liatris. I know that one.

Can you help me identify these plants/flowers please?
Comments (18)I would love to grow that Maple but alas, no room. :o( The ground cover amongst your Violets is Wandering Jew...a weed. Can cause skin allergies on dogs. It is hard to get rid of because anything left will grow back. Vigilance is needed. The garage wall has Ficus pumila, creeping fig. It is pretty and useful but if not kept under strict control, can turn into a monster....you might want to Google information about it before the trouble begins. The small plant with the shiny leaves is Coprosma. Considered a weed in Melbourne. An untidy bush that is hard to keep to a decent shape and reseeds everywhere. I would pull it out now while it's small. Sorry to be so negative, just being honest. Dee....See MoreHelp Me Identify Yellow Flowering Tree Please
Comments (2)No, It isn't a Fremontodendron, and its not actually native to California, either. Your photo displays the blooming Mexican Palo Verde, Parkinsonia aculeata. It has attractive smooth green trunks, thorny branches, and loves heat and is very drought tolerant, but a rather messy tree to garden under as it is constantly dropping the spent leaves, so perhaps is best used over planting areas and not as a patio tree. Similar trees with even greener trunks and the same bright yellow blooms would include the Palo Verde trees if the Sonoran Desert, various Cercidium species, but these aren't as commonly seen in more coastal California gardens....See MoreYellow flower?

Maybe these (Dendrobium Orchid)?eta, the circle on the left.
I thought I could see unopened orchid blossoms in the stem in the left side circle, but now I can see that it's probably pussywillow...so it looks like both circles are stock.

I originally titled this “help me identify this half-dead flower” 😬 but I thought that wasn’t nice to ask people to identify a half-dead (or actually, almost totally dead) flower. HA! Then I found a photo of the arrangement when it was fresh. Below is the half-dead one. I’m pretty sure it isn’t an orchid.
DD has the landscaper coming Monday to talk about putting in a cutting garden for DGD. That’s going to be a challenge. She’s 4. She uses the Queen of Hearts theory of flower cutting - “off with their heads.” 😂 ETA: They are looking at some of the flowers in the bouquet as a starting place for the cutting garden.bbstx
