    Hi, i used to live in Hawaii and there were these flowers there that i have to know the name of. They were very small flowers, the shape of a star, felt like velvet to the touch. They came in different colors, the only ones ive seen were pink and purple. They were a little thick, but very soft and velvety. PLease help me find the name of these flowers. Thanks!

    Shot in the dark, though this is almost impossible given the description. Lantana camara]/i]? It ranges in colours from yellow to orange to pink to purple.
