Who are more beautiful?
ReplyDeleteThe guests or the flowers?
Lovely flowers!
ReplyDeleteI wish i can find the purple or pink cosmos here, as i only see yellow and orange. How high is the temp now in Putrajaya?
ReplyDeleteVery easy, the main distinct difference between Cosmos and Coreopsis is the spelling and the rest, sorry I cant even tell the colors apart. Awesome pixz. tQ.
ReplyDeletecan cosmos grow here in malaysia and where can i get the seeds. juz love the colours and btw beautiful pics.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are soothing to the soul. Lovely flowers and thank you for sharing more beautiful blooms on the TF home page.
ReplyDeleteI would love to have some of those Cosmos in my yard. I hope you have a wonderful day. Gorgeous photos and flowers.
ReplyDeletePretty cosmos flowers!
ReplyDeleteWow! Pretty cosmos..mine are very small blooms (ulam raja)! Do they sell their seeds there or just plants?
ReplyDeleteEach is a work of art. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThese are all so beautiful and I love your shots on the home site of Today's Flowers.
ReplyDeleteRainfield, the flowers were beautiful even after it rained in the fields ;>)
ReplyDeleteLotusleaf, thanks!
Andrea, the weather in Putrajaya is partially cloudy, between 30-32C (I think). The most common is yellow and orange here too.
Bananaz, I have updated my post with colour description now, hehe!
Anonymous, we can grow cosmos and coreopsis in Malaysia. You can find the young plants or seedlings in your local nursery. If you buy these plants and grow in your garden, you can collect the seeds after the flower heads has dried up. The seeds of the common yellow and orange cosmos are also sold in packets which are available at garden centres and hypermarkets.
Denise, thanks!
Eileeninmd, wow, your yard must be very attractive now!
Asha, thanks!
P3chandan, this year I can't find any seeds at the garden bazaar. They sell ulam raja plants there, also many types of ornamentals, fruits, vege, herbs and spice plants, even white bunga kantan. In fact many many choices this year.
Asha, thanks!
Roan, welcome and thanks!
Carver, Welcome to My Nice Garden and thanks! I love orchids.

ReplyDeleteLoverly flowers, AB! I'll have to back read a bit. I don't think I caught all your Floria features. Thanks for sharing your visit with us. If only it were so easy to travel with plants. I'd be at a lot of regional garden shows. LOL!
ReplyDeleteYOUR PHOTOS ARE BEAUTIFUL AND AS I´ve said before: YOU capture the beauty by a simple way....I like it...Sometimes, I want to visit you more, but I can´t because I travel as a destination photographer. For that reason I canelled my account on FB. I couldn´t know what my friends were doing.

ReplyDeleteI love cosmos. I grew some from seed to see how they would do in the heat of the Arizona desert. When the temperature hit 118 F (48 C) they all died. So not so good for growing here.
