Mystery Flower 1

As you know I don't very often post photos of flowers, but while we were away I saw a few flowers that I was unable to identify and decided to take photos of them in case anyone on 365 would be able to tell me what they are.

Julia @julzmaioro is very good at identifying flowers for me and maybe she can tell me what this one is too.

Thanks so much for putting my Matchstick Men photo on the TT.

@julzmaioro Here you go Julia, this is my first mystery flower, any ideas? No pressure.

If anyone else can identify it please let me know.

[julia]

Could be Buttercup Tree.... Senna Corymbosa.. is it a shrub rather than a plant..?

[Babs]

@julzmaioro Oh well done Julia, yes it is a Buttercup Tree. If I remember rightly now, it was rather like a shrub than just a flower.
We were walking through bushland on our way back to the car from a beach and saw it.

I will post my other mystery flower tomorrow. The second one was in the same area as this one.

[Wylie]

Argh, its a Cassia - generally regarded as a noxious weed, although otherwise a lovely plant:)

[julia]

They are in our nurseries here and flower in the autumn.. yes Cassia is another name.. think they are fairly shallow rooted so get top heavy and blow over..

[Sheralee S]

I also thought a Cassia. Very pretty flower.

[Babs]

@pusspup Now I am confused, is a Senna Corymbosa (Buttercup tree) the same as a Cassia leptophylla (gold medallion tree) because I looked a pictures of both and they look the same.

[julia]

Cassia is the species and Senna is the genus.. so same thing.. lol..come from southern USA, Uruguay and Agentina..

[Babs]

@julzmaioro ha ha told you I was hopeless when it comes to flowers. So many different names for one little flower no wonder I am confused. I have no idea how you remember them all. I learn so much on 365.

[Loopy-Lou]

Very pretty flower

[Beryl Lloyd]

A very pretty and interesting looking bright flower - a lovely spot of sunshine on our grey day !!

[julia]

@onewing My Mum was very good at knowing the names of them all ... I guessed I must have listened more than what I thought .. lol...

[Casablanca]

No idea but I like it :)

[Margo]

fav

[Sam]

It's a lovely buttercup colour!

[JackieR]

Yellow so a buttercip or daffodil my guess? Fabulous details

[Valerie Chesney]

Beautiful capture, I am sure this is a Cassia Tree...

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautiful shot and great focusu.

[Dione Giorgio]

Sorry, I meant focus.

[Peter]

Looks like a Easter Cassia (Senna pendula var. glabrata) to me Babs, its extremely well capture in wonderful detail and colour Babs:)

[Lou Ann]

Lovely detail, beautiful flowers.

[Merrelyn]

I have seen these before but didn't know what they were called, until now :))

[bkb in the city]

Beautiful

[tony gig]

Beautiful flowers and lovely shot...Fav

[mittens (Marilyn)]

So pretty and uplifting looking.

[Helen Jane]

glad you got your answer - the flower does look like a buttercup.

[Jacqueline]

No idea! But I like your capture.

[Margaret Brown]

No idea but very pretty!

[sarah]

So pretty such a great flower to photo

[haskar]

Lovely shot and colour.

@julzmaioro @pusspup @bella_ss @bizziebeeme @beryl @casablanca @777margo @777margo @gigiflower @30pics4jackiesdiamond @happysnaps @sangwann @pcoulson @louannwarren @merrelyn @bkbinthecity @tonygig @mittens @helenhall @jacqbb @craftymeg @samae @haskar Well this one turned out to be complicated.
I think Julia has it though. Senna corymbosa (Cassia corymbosa) appear to be the same thing. Julia explains - Cassia is the species and Senna is the genus.. so same thing.. lol..come from southern USA, Uruguay and Argentina

It does have a pretty buttercup like flower and I used to love picking buttercups when I was a child.

[Pyrrhula]

Great shot of this beautiful flower. Love the focus and clear details. Fav.

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Lovely shot

[Lois]

Beautiful capture!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Cassia, senna- to-may-toe- to-mah-toe- no matter what you call it, it's pretty! LOL my guess was that it was an orchid! You can tell I don't live in a tropical environment!

[KWind]

The yellow and green combo is wonderful!

[Kathy A]

Its very pretty and a lovely colour. I know nothing about flowers so my guess would have been the same as @30pics4jackiesdiamond

[Babs]

@kjarn Julia figured it, but I wouldn't have had a clue

[Wylie]

@onewing Gee, its hard to tell isn't it! I would say its down to the leaves but I think some of the photos thrown up by Google are incorrectly labelled! Cassia is certainly a very common escapee in Aus.

[Wylie]

@pusspup just read comments above and that's a great solution!

[ChristineL]

So bright and beautiful!

[Angela]

Amazing stamen

[Dawn]

Pretty

[Walks @ 7]

Stunning and reminds me a bit of Salvador Dali.

[Mandy]

Lovely - looks a little orchid like.

[Babs]

@joysabin ha ha, yes, it does remind you of his moustache doesn't it,
