My grand-daughter told me that this might be a flower she called "Kalanchoe".
I have never seen, or heard of, such a plant, so I looked on line.
It does approximate some Kalanchoe flowers shown on line but not many of that genus (that I found on line) match, and only a very few come relatively close.
It's such a pretty bloom I just wanted to post it, and if anybody knows indoor flowers and recognizes it, they can identify it for sure.

It is a very pretty flower and captured very well in these images. Very good color and details. Thank your Granddaughter for bringing this one to your attention

The first photo is particularly well done. Very nice work!

I'll pass that word along to her, Mike!
Thanks for mentioning it!

Beautiful images Angky! The first one has fantastic lighting and superb use of a shallow depth of field to create a 3D effect.

Glad to know that the soft focused background and blurring worked to good effect.
Still learning these things.
Thanks for the input.

Definitely like the First of the shots greatly! Nicely done!

Very beautiful images, Angky!
It may well be a Kalanchoe, can't be certain without a look at the foliage. Certainly is a pretty thing, regardless.

(today's lesson ... correct pronunciation is Kal-an-CO-ee, common mispronunciation is Kal-AN-show)

Your pronunciation lesson is right on!
I had a very hard time finding this flower on line from the way my grand-daughter carefully mis-pronounced it (and misspelled it).
I think I have more images that include the foliage--taken with the K10D camera. I'll see if one of them is worth posting to help in ID.

Yes, that first shot was carefully selected and processed.
The second was added just for aid in identifying the plant.
But I still need to get more info into the images.
Thanks for your appreciation of that image.

Angky, Can you post a pic of the Plant with leaves showing? Many plants have distinct leaves that are used to ID them.

Understood. At the nursery we had a few staff, and MANY customers, who always pronounced it "CLAN-show". Drove me nuts, I confess. Worse, there were a few of each who couldn't correctly pronounce some orchid names, either... couple of sales reps, in particular...I wanted to make them stand in the corner and speak the names a hundred times until they got it right (I never did, but was tempted many times...)

Will do that, Al!
I currently do not have any shots with clear images of the leaves and stems; I was only shooting the blooms. (Foolish of me!)
But I'll get some of the foliage as soon as I'm able.
And thanks to you and to Julie for requesting that!
It will be quite interesting to know exactly what kind of plant that is--such beautiful blooms on it!

Sales reps are never going to say anything differently to what their customers call it!

Sad but true...I just hate perpetuating ignorance, particularly when this nursery was alleged to be world-class for orchid expertise. Anyhow, yeah, if you can get some images of the plant itself, leaves, growth habit, etc., that will be very helpful for ID attempts.

I am definitely working on it.
Give me a few days to get back to her house and I'll get some foliage in the images.

Cool. At your convenience, of course!
