Abutilon
A fancy kind of abutilon (‘Tiger’s Eye’), with dark purple bud casings. Seen (of course!) at Seattle’s Volunteer Park Conservatory.
Red, yellow and orange veins, and a dark, velvety bud casing in this small tropical flower.

Fabulous flowers. Interesting and beautiful .
Crazy nice color but the flowers are also a bit insect like just escaping their cocoon.
Lovely macro photography. I hope you’ll come link up at http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2015/05/textures.html
What an unusual flower. – Margy
A flower I’ve never seen, beautiful!
Striking flower I’ve not seen before! Thank you for showing it.
That is a stunning flower! I love that rich color.
Cool! I too haven’t seen this one before..guess that’s what conservatories are for.
Oh wow, absolutely devine! Definitely new to me too. Thanks for sharing Sara.
Yes that is a fancy kind, so very beautiful. I guess it only grows in the temperate climate.
What an interesting flower! Such a great color combo!
That is indeed an unusual abutilon, Sara. Lovely photo.
Thank you for joining Floral Friday Fotos and I hope to see your next contribution soon.
