While walking around the garden near the house, I came across this striking flower, Chrysothemis pulchella, growing among the green leaves. The bright color of the petals, a combination of yellow and red-orange, immediately caught my attention. The flowers look so alive, with a fine hairy texture on the edges of the petals that gives it a unique look.

I decided to take a macro image so that the details of each part of the flower could be seen clearly. The thin red lines in the middle of the yellow petals look like an impressive natural painting, making this flower look even more alluring. As I looked closer, I also noticed the boldly striped surface of the leaves, adding contrast to the delicate flowers.

The experience of observing these flowers gave me a feeling of calm and admiration for the beauty of nature. Every little element in this flower feels like a stunning work of art. It feels good to be able to share this discovery with the nature observer community. Hopefully friends can also feel the same beauty through this photo!

Oh, a wonderful species... My grandmother used to grow them in pots.... I remember them perfectly from my childhood... Oddly enough, I have not seen these plants in local gardens again...
