I am a national geographic photographer who does a lot of macro plant work. I was hoping someone might have an idea what these flowers are called. I took them in Fiji. See attached images. I have gone crazy looking on line for them. Thanks
136 is Ixora of some description, maybe a cultivar of I. coccinea (which is common as a decorative planting across the tropics) 8435 is Ixora coccinea - unknown cultivar. 4645 is Tibouchina or a close relative - without seeing the plant and leaves it's going to be difficult to pinpoint a species. Do you have a photo of the actual flower of 4639? It's quite difficult to ID without open flowers, leaves, or other clues as to plant habit.
4645 might be Jatropha integerrima. http://www.google.com/search?q=jatr...JEbT-sQKB6KirCA&ved=0CC0QsAQ&biw=1025&bih=484
