FFTD: Verbena

Posted on September 18, 2020 Updated on September 18, 2020

There are several species of Verbena and this one is a Bonariensis or Purpletop Vervain, Clustertop Vervain, Argentinian Vervain and, good old fashioned Tall Verbena. It is not, however, a Brazilian Verbena. ~Vic

FFTD: Ruellia

Posted on August 28, 2020 Updated on August 29, 2020

A member of the Acanthaceae family, this could be a Ruellia Simplex or Mexican Petunia, Mexican Bluebell or Britton’s Wild Petunia. It could be a Ruellia Tuberosa or Minnieroot, Fever Root, Snapdragon Root or Sheep Potato. Honestly, they look the same to me. ~Vic

FFTD: Marsh Tickseed

Posted on August 24, 2020

It took me a while to find this one. Even Pl@ntNet had trouble. At first, I thought it was a Coreopsis but, the petals didn’t match. Then, I thought it might be a Cosmos but, the petals still didn’t match. This is a Bidens Trichosperma. I think there has been some classification shuffling but, they are all in the Asteraceae family or Sunflower family. ~Vic

FFTD: Hibiscus

Posted on July 27, 2020 Updated on July 26, 2020

These flowers are frequently found in teas. They have a high Vitamin C content. I’ve tried them but, the flavor does not appeal to me that much. I lean more towards ginger and peppermint teas. ~Vic

Or, Passion Flower. I’m doing a happy dance as I just discovered Pl@nt Net. It should be much easier to identify my flowers & other plants. ~Vic

FFTD: Pale Green

Posted on July 9, 2020 Updated on July 29, 2020

Update:
As it turns out, thanks to Pl@ntNet, this is an Iberis Umbellata or, Globe Candytuft. I think it may have already bloomed and the center colors are all that is left. It appears to be the same thing as my previous post.

This looks like a tiny bird nest with eggs. If anyone knows what this is, let me know. ~Vic
