What is the name of this yellow flower?

We ate a couple of times at this restaurant called Il Camino between Terni and Spoleto in Umbria. One night they gave us a little thing of flowers. It was yellow and the flowers were small and kind of poofy. I meant to ask what it was called, but forgot. It seemed like they grew sort of like baby's breath. Any clue what it might be called?

What is the name of this yellow flower?
I think you were given "mimosa": They are one of the first flowers of spring here in Italy and they are usually given out on March 8th, women's day. Here is a picture:

Reply:i think i know what your talking about. but its not clear, i mean these flowers you were given were edible or non edible? the ones i think you are talking about are non edible are given in some what like branches of them not one by one. the custom is that every woman is given one on the Day of the Women, which is celebrated i think in april, or around that period. so its common to see the ladies walking aroudn holding one on that special day. however, if i knew the name of the flower, id tell you, but if it comes to mind later on ill write it down.
Reply:the only flower i can think of, which is also yellow and a little bit poofy is taraxacum. which is eatable in salads and soups but mostly it's leaves are tasty. try to be more specific explaining how is that flower, maybe i will remember something ells, if no, i can cheek it for u in here.





try to copy the name of the flower and cheek if u recognize it in the images of yahoo.








Nice Nasturtiums





Watercress is cultivated mainly in Southern England and can also be found near fast-flowing streams. It is available all year round and its pungent peppery flavour adds a kick to salads.








* maybe its erba iva??? that is a small small flower yellow and wight, it has a great tast, bitter-sweet and u can put it in soups and salads and mostly fix a great alpin tea?








* or.... hehehe achillea????








* what the last answer u have recived is talking about is the mimosa, but it's not eatable.
Reply:I'm guessing but it was possibly courgette flowers as they are quite a delicacy in Italy. Usually they're dipped in a light batter and quickly deep fried. Not sure what baby's breath is.





Update: Ah, if they're tiny, probably not what I suggested then.
Reply:Another possible answer is "nasturtiums", a yellow or orange flower. They grow almost like a weed, very quickly, that is. They don't have a sweet scent, but they have a beautiful flower...

Is there a plant or flower named Dewey?

My sweet dog is old and dying. He is being put to rest on Thursday. His name is Dewey. I was wondering if there is a plant or flower named Dewey that I could plant next to him? Does anyone know?

Is there a plant or flower named Dewey?
So sorry. Thats a sweet thing you are doing. Here is what I found along with the sites.





A plant named "Dewey Blue". It's Ornamental grass.





A plant named "Dewey's sedge" It's Perennial Grass-like.
Reply:no but I'm sorry to hear about your loss
Reply:"Dewey Blue" is the common nickname for an ornamental beach grass (Panicum amarum). It grows to about 3 feet tall and has pretty blue flowers at the end of the summer. It usually grows in sandy locations from coastal Connecticut down to Florida. If you live in a climate that can tolerate it, you can plant it in a sandy container, rather than directly in the ground. Your local garden supply center probably has an assortment of attractive containers.





I am very sorry for the loss of your dog, I hope this information helps.

I've found one flower for you. It's a pink fuchsia called Carole Hipkin. If you type this name into Google, you can see a picture of it. Hope you like it.

Please name me all the colors possible an amaryllis flower can be.?

Here's a website with pictures of the different colors: http://www.royalcolors.com/index.php?nav... Depending on where you shop, you may find flower colors such as raspberry, peach, salmon, and orange along with the traditional red, pink, and white.


"Flowers may be solid colors or brightened up with a stripe of white" . "Some have petal edges or throats with a contrasting color.


"In addition to the single forms, there are doubles, too, which have more layers of overlapping flower petals or their centers are frilled."


One example, is 'Dancing Queen', a double with up to five layers of ruffled red and white petals which look like a petticoat.


A new class of Amaryllis is Cybister, which has slender, exotic, spidery flowers. An example of this is 'Ruby Meyer' with its thin, ruby-red petals with chartreuse markings.


"Another group, Trumpet Amaryllis, has flowers that resemble an Easter lily, though with smaller flowers, and may also have a light fragrance," . "Other new choices include miniatures, which are smaller, shorter plants."

Please name me all the colors possible an amaryllis flower can be.?
White through various shades of pink and red; also orange and salmon colours, along with deep burgundy and even picotees and striped flowers.
Reply:According to this website, there are several types of Amaryllis:

From where does the name of the flower narcissus come?

A youth of Greek mythology called Narcissus, who, in at least one of many variations of the tale, became so obsessed with his own reflection as he kneeled and gazed into a pool of water that he fell into the water and drowned. The legend continues that the Narcissus plant first sprang from where he died.

From where does the name of the flower narcissus come?
A greek myth about a guy named narcissus who was in love with him self. One day he was looking at a pond and saw his reflection and stared at it. This goddess or nymph ( can't remember) liked him and tried to talk to him, but he was too into himself to notice her so she got mad %26amp; turned him into the flower. It's also where the word narcisist (? spelling) came from.
Reply:The Narcissus flower is named after Narcissus. This was after he supposedly turned into a flower when he died, by looking at himself in the water too long. This forced him to stay there, because he was the god of beauty and he could only fall in love with himself; he later died of despair as he could not grasp the 'stranger' in the water

I'm guessing Lavandula dentata..it's hard to tell for sure. The leaves appear to be "dentated" and that's why I'm going with Lavandula dentata instead of Lavandula stoechas.

Do you think this is a match?





I don't list the common names because there is great confusion over what is French lavender and what is Spanish lavender. Better to stick with botanical names on this one!





"Spanish Lavender is probably what the ancient Greeks and Romans used to scent their bath water. Indeed the word Lavender is from Latin lavare (to wash). Spanish Lavender is often referred to in older publications as French Lavender (which, today, is how we refer to L. dentata)." - Mountain Valley Growers website
Reply:Lavandula angustifolia





(Spanish Lavender is more magenta and has larger petals)
Reply:I believe what you have there is a form of salvia (purple salvia) it is in the sage family but is a flowering version. Nice and hearty!
Reply:That there is spanish lavender. Depending on where you live..it is an annual. I live in zone 4..annual here. Very pretty.
