Are you ready for another photo quiz today? Let’s have some fun with Terri’s Floral ABC’s theme of flowers featuring PQR. I don’t have a Q flower for you so I have included two that start with P and one that starts with R. Can you identify them? You can check your answers at the end of this post.
Sharing with Terri’s Flower Hour #46
P1: Phlox, P2: Sweet Pea, R: Rhododendron
Every Day is a Gift




So, they’re stunning images! And I completely failed. I thought the first looked like Phlox – just not our Phlox – but the white stars in the centres confused me. [Cam says to tell you I had a head start on the “confused” bit.] The other two I’d no idea whatsoever. See why I want to be Georgia-bound?!? Lovely post and thanks for making it into a puzzle – it was fun!

Thanks Pam! I’m glad you like the flowers! The phlox was growing wild in Texas, the sweet pea in a field in Georgia, and the rhododendron was on the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina.

P2 looks like some sort of coral pea and R is a Rhododendron of course. I don’t recognise the first P.
I just dragged your image into my photo library and used the plant ID I have linked to it and it says Annual Phlox (Phlox drummondii). Is that right? My plant identifier gives 3 possibilities, but is sometimes wrong so I have to resort to Google images on those occasions.

Vicki, yes P2 is a sweet Pea and P1 is a phlox I found growing wild in Texas. Thanks you!

Beth, I love the colors in Phloxes. The Sweet Pea image is gorgeous. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that flower. The Rhododendron is another beauty, too. Great trio!

Gorgeous flowers. I have the first two but not the rhodie, but my neighbors have plenty. That’s the most gorgeous sweet pea I’ve ever seen.

Thanks! FYI – My not being able to identify them had nothing to do with your photography. I am just terrible at remembering the names of flowers. 😉

Somewhere I have a photo of me picking sweet peas as a child from the patch I grew on our garden fence, Beth. Another of the gladiolas I grew.
