Hello, I came across those flowers and leaves from plants and trees from the streets where I live. I was hoping somebody could help me identify them. Thank you, Mehdi
I actually know one of these... http://www.botanicalgarden.ubc.ca/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=114364&d=1369225426 orange flower... looks like pride of barbadoes http://growerjim.blogspot.com/2010/07/caesalpinia-pulcherrima.html A leaf or flower removed from the plant makes identification difficult... http://www.stonethegardener.com/wp/2012/02/how-to-identify-plants/
Thank you for your reply. I think you might be right concerning the "pride of barbadoes" because the leaves it had were similar to the ones shown in the link you posted. It's the first time I try to identify plants and I have no knowledge of botany. So I'm not familiar with the methods. But I will go back and take pictures of the whole plants. Thanks again!
you guys know your stuff. Its incredible to see people identifying plants so easily. It is in fact from a plumeria. Thank you
Is the first photo from a shrub, a tree or another plant? If it's from a tree, it makes think of an ulmacea, perhaps a species of Celtis or Zelkova. My two €-cents' worth...
The Plumeria is P. obtusa The first photo does not look lika an Ulmacea but may be leaflets of a compound leaf, e.g. like a Fraxinus sp. -- but I doubt that it's that. You need to show the whole branch, showing mode of attachment of leaves.
