Today’s Flowers

October 26, 2008 | Filed Under Colors, Flowers, Found on a Building Stoop, Photo Blogging Theme Day, Today's Flowers, White 

Anyone know the name of this flower?  Can someone tell me, please?   ;-)   These flowers were part of a collection in a flower box on a building stoop.  They are no longer there.   Something more appropriate for the Fall season has replaced it.

Check out TODAY’S FLOWERS for a fantastic collection of photos from all over the world.

    What gorgeous white flowers! It looks something like a snapdragon to me. I hope someone can identify it for you.

    They look similas to snapdragons, also the leaves, somewhere in the back of my mind I hear a little bell tinkling but can’t put my finger on it. It looks like a bi-annual.
    Nice photos.

    I was going to say snapdragon, sounds like others are in agreement. It’s lovely with that green throat, looks like a screamer. heh heh heh

    I am sure it is not a snapdragon, however, I don’t know what it IS, so what good is that? In any case, a beautiful flower. Come see the rose I have put up for Today’s Flowers, if you have time.

    I don’t know what they’re not snapdragons unless they’re a variation of them. Snapdragons’ petals close like a mouth over the center. I’ve seen this but never identified them. Nice shots by the way! :-)

    It is a lovely flower Paz and I am sure I have seen them in bouquets but I can not give you the name of them either! This post could have been ‘The Mystery of the White Flower’!

    I can recognize the plant group it belongs to, but the species ?? probably a hybrid or a …x… I really would like to know. Your shadow shot is outstanding ! a linear pearl, perfect composition.

    Hi Paz. This flower may be an open-faced snapdragon called Madame Butterfly. Check out this link: http://www.capitalgardens.co.uk/v3/antirrhinum-majus-double-madame-butterfly-mixed-snapdragon-seeds-p-10270.html and look especially at the white one.

    Best,
