Flowers

These are growing in our front garden - no idea what they are as I'm not the gardener of the household. They really are this colourful, though - this is SOOC.

Wow -- SOOC? The colors are wonderful. I think it is gallardia. I'm not much of a gardener either, but that name came to me as I looked at it and I googled it. Looks to my eyes like what you have.

Stunning shot, wonderful colours. Yes, @mcsiegle is right I believe, gallardia.

[Sally Ings]

Lovely colours. Love the hairiness of the new flowers

@mcsiegle @masosy @salza Thank you all. I've checked with the resident expert and you are quite right, it is Gallardia.

We are growing these in our backyard - they were tagged as "blanket flower" but maybe Gallardia is the more proper term for it. Nice capture!

Nice image Phil. You did great with the colors. I decided to follow you since you made me laugh over at the "cow haunting". I'm still laughing.

@photohoot Thanks Wendy - I'm no great photographer, but in the area of cow-haunting jokes I have no equal. I'm going follow you back because you have some great photos - just fav'd the one with the sky reflected in the lightbulb.

Lovely quality and composition Phil!

Brilliant colours, I'm like you - see them, like them, photograph them but have no idea what they are:)
