ubereglu Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 'Fraid I don't know, but it's really pretty and I love the shapes! (No help, I know!!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen&Lee Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Me neither - though it is pretty My guess would be its a tropical plant - have you got a picture that shows its leaf? Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 looks a bit like a frangipani, see bottom left pic here http://www.sacredgardenfrangipanis.com/frangipani_01.htm beautiful flowers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cazz Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 its not that, thats also clled a plumeria ive used an image of one of those, they have slimmer leaves than the one im looking for. Thanks anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tessa the Duchess Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I've just had a look through the RHS encylopedia of plants and flowers. It might be an orchid, they seem to come in all shapes and sizes. The name of the one it looks like is Phalaenopis Lady Jersey. You might have a google and see what you think.

Snowy Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Still looks like plumeria to me Five petals in a windmill arrangement, can't see anything else that is so similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxanne Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I think its a frangipani too, its def. not an orchid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I'm with the frangipani mob too. My folks have a plant in their porch and the flowers are identical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omletina Kyckling Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I also think it's a frangipani - I know Cazz said the leaves were different, but from the ones I looked at the leaves varied on various ones.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
