What is it?

When I took this picture I thought these flowers were, what we call in Australia, Christmas Bells.

I thought it was a bit odd flowering in June, but when I checked it out on Google, although they look similar they aren't Christmas Bells. Does anyone know what they are called.

Cotelydon Succulent Flowers Im guessing

[Diane]

I think it is called Cotyledon from the succulent family, I have one in my garden but I had no idea of it's name, so looked it up on the net, they are very pretty and attract lots of birds. Hope that's right Babs.

[Marnie]

I know the flowers Babs, but no clue on their name. Sorry. But I do think this is a lovely shot.

[Beryl Lloyd]

No Idea of it's name Babs but it is a succulent --I have one growing as a pot plant

I am not very well up on flowers but I saw this one as we were walking back from the beach. It is in an area which is fenced off for regeneration purposes by the beach and I had to lean over the fence to get this picture.
I think Tessa and Diane are right (thank you both) and it is a cotelydon succulent flower. I Googled it and it looks right. Well done you have both won a coconut.

[Jane Morley]

Whatever it is it's pretty. Love the colours.

It's not like anything I've seen before so I'm sorry I can't be of help but it is a beautiful flower. The spiderweb is a great touch.

It was a bit late though so here it is again.
