Backlit Flowers
We had a nice walk today in Alice Keck Park Gardens. Been spending too much time in front of my computer and not enough time out enjoying life. (or behind my camera!)Not sure what kind of flower this is though, my botanist will probably be able to tell me when she wakes up.

| I believe what you have here is a Pelargonium tetragonum. No it's not related to any of the extinct dinosaur species. The specific name, tetragonum, is derived from the Greek words tetra (four) and gonia- (angled) and refers to the characteristic square-shaped stem. The genus Pelargonium consists of over 200 species, of which some 80% occur in southern Africa. |
