I Have Some More Flowers that I need identification on! Can you help?

My sister has the first one in a pot, I'll see if she knows what it is. #3 reminds me of Queen Anne's lace. On #4, is that nest part of the tree? The leaves look like plum.

The second one is in the mallow family. commonly called mountain hollyhock,botanical name of Iliamna rivularis.

#2 is a hollyhock -- they come in many different colors and varieties. No clue on the others.

Great photos!

The 3rd looks like a member of the milkweed family or Asclepias Syriaca

#1 looks like it could be a Chilean bellfower which are ofter this color and can grow 15' tall.

I have no idea on the tree.

they are beautiful...I am not sure what they are but I am sure my ex would tell me but I don't like him enough to ask.

I have no idea but I do like the photos and pretty flowers.

Thanks so much for posting this to
my group

#3 is a weed..I remember those as a kid...But it is one of those pretty weeds.

Pretty shots. I don't know what any of them are.

Thanks for posting this to BEST ORIGINAL PHOTOS, ART AND WRITING FOR 2008.

I am sorry, but I havent a clue..

Trudy, the first looks to be something grown in warmer climes, so can't help you there.

#2 is not a holly hock. It is in the hollyhock family. It is either malva (Malva moschata rosea) or lavatera (tree mallow).

#3 is a milkweed of some kind.

#4 is a purple smoke bush (cottinus spp)

they are all pretty whatever they are!

Trudy, Bobbi is correct #2 is called a rose mallow - (malva moschata rosea). I used to grow those from seed in Germany - once you have one they keep coming back every year and they self seed too.

#1 - I cant' say - #3 is a milkweed and #4 is a smokebush.

Great photos! These are all so pretty. You are lucky to have them growing wild. I'm glad you've gotten some good answers here. The only one that look familiar to me is the milkweed. Monarch butterfly larvae eat milkweed. Thank you for submitting this to Help Identify This!

Great collection of flower photos!

I think Bobbi has the best answers so far... at least I would guess the same names for them, too.

The first one looks like a vine my mother used to grow on a trellis. She called it Garlic Vine because the leaves when crushed or handled gave off an amazingly strong garlic aroma. The lilac flowers were scentless. The young flowers started off as purple, becoming lilac as it matured, fading almost to white before it was done... it made for an interesting vine with what looked like three different colored flowers on it all at the same time.

Great photo essay. Thanks for posting it to photopoints.
I am featuring it in Yadayadayada too.

Hmm...not sure what any of them are, but they're pretty just the same. :D

I like the flowers. I wish I could give you more info on what they are.

#1 My best estimation is that it is a Campanula Burghaltii , Campanula family with the common name bellflower. It takes its name from their bell-shaped flowers an aristocratic-looking variety with large hanging bells that are deep amethyst in bud, but open to a beautiful shade of pale, silvery lilac The genus includes about 300 species and several subspecies so it is difficult to tell by only a photo.
IT IS MOST DEFINITELY NOT a Copihue" or Chilean Bellflower, Lapageria rosea see them her they are red to pink or white flowers http://members.aol.com/lapageria/myhomepage/garden.html

#2 The hollyhocks comprise about 60 species of flowering plants in the genus Alcea (Ál-ce-a) in the mallow family Mountain hollyhock Iliamna rivularis
http://montana.plant-life.org/species/iliam_rivu.htm
#3 Asclepias asperula is a species of milkweed native to southwestern United States http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asclepias_asperula
#4 The American Smoke Tree Order: Sapindales Family: Anacardiaceae Genus: Cotinus Adans.
Species
Cotinus coggygria or Cotinus obovatus it is hard to tell with out more photos of the whole bush. The smoketrees, particularly C. coggygria, are popular garden shrubs. there are several bronze or purple-leaved cultivars of C. coggygria , with warm pink inflorescences set against purple-black foliage; the commonest in commerce are 'Notcutt's Variety' and 'Royal Purple'. The two species I mention above.

I don't know, but they are pretty! Points nation

Are they all wild plants???

This is great. I just know the common names of most of my plants and that doesn't help because people have different common names. I know who to ask now.
