BUZZ ME AGAIN IF YOU NEED HELP

I came across these flowers the other day. I have no idea what they are. The had no perceptible scent to me. So I asked my friend if he good check it out since his sense of smell is much better than mine. He hopped right in and said, "Yep, they smell great. I guess it's all a matter of Beeing There." Wise acre! I still don't know what the are.

  2. I'm botanically challenged and won't be able to help you with that. I'm pretty sure the yellow bug is a bee however.

  4. The petals are a beautiful shade. I wish that I knew more about flowers because I think it's important to NAME them.

  10. Bee-utiful. I'm not sure what it is but it may be a fancy hybrid rose of Sharon with double flowers.

  11. Ah, to bee or not to bee? You just can't trust the little buzzers!

    I don't know what flower that is, either. Furthermore I don't care. I just like to look at them and smell them, if, of course, they have a discernible scent.

    But I'll bee darned if that buzzer didn't know the name of the flower!

  19. I think they are a type of (double) Rose-of-Sharon, otherwise known as (at least here) wild hibiscus. Mighty purdy.
