Side lighting, bringing out texture both centrally and on the petals, makes that image special.

The whole potful of rose mallow. Not a flower you would call "a subtle beauty." Each blossom seems to last only two or three days.

One from a few years back. The daisy sort of stood out

Mass planting, sometimes very effective.

One more rose mallow. The plant has just about exhausted its flowers.

Not exactly big flowers, but now it is posted here. No idea what these are called. Growing fairly high up in the Azores.
