I actually don’t know the name of this flower. But I really love its color and shape. This flower looks like an eggplant. The plant only seldom yield a flower, and yet, the flower withered so fast. I felt so blessed that one time, I was able to capture its beauty. Beautiful, isn’t?
I hope you like it! You love flowers? Why don’t you join us adoring beautiful flowers at Macro Flower Saturday.

I love that color! Wonderful!
I would have to go along with the datura nomenclature… Datura metel I think…. they are certainly lovely! Larry
That flower is beautiful, whatever it is. I hope you’ll be able to post its name if you do find out what it is.
Surely, I’ll post it when I get the name 🙂
Thanks Jennifer 🙂
Beautiful blooms.
Have a great week.
Thanks Regina 🙂
Blessings!
I thought you photographed the egg plant flower. It’s nice.
First time entry on this meme
beautiful indeed!
Thank you Lily!
I agree that it looks like an Angel’s Trumpet. Michigan Bulb has a photo of a double-bloom variety. http://michiganbulb.com/product.asp_Q_pn_E_06167_A_Purple+People+Eater+Angel+Trumpet_E_
It’s very pretty, whatever it turns out to be! Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Thank you Denise 🙂
It does look like an eggplant flower, however eggplant’s leaves are wider compared to this one. Datura is more like it.
Have a great week!
Have a great week too fini. Will post it here as soon as I get the name 🙂
No wonder why you called it eggplant flower because of the color. These is very pretty, I thought it’s petunia but it look bigger than petunia. Thanks for sharing this one like it. Happy Sunday!
Purple blossom
It maybe a petunia, I couldn’t just confirm because I don’t know the name yet 😀
I think angel’s trumpet is one of the names for datura, and it is poisonous. I love the way you captured the details of the nearer petal in that first shot!
Thanks Judy!
It is beautiful with its trumpet. You mentioned that it might be a datura – if it is wash your hands after touching it as most parts of the plant contain toxic hallucinogens. Some people call it Brugmansia nowadays too. Its probably easier to detect what it is once it has formed its seedhead. I think its a beautiful plant to have despite its toxicity.
Thanks Rosie for the added information 🙂
Very pretty
Thanks Barbara 🙂
It is very unusual but lovely. The coloring is especially beautiful. I don’t know the name but it could be some sort of bell flower.
Me too. I don’t know the name 🙂
I’ve never seen anything quite like this one, but agree it is beautiful!
Thanks Roan. Blessings!
Beautiful!
Thanks Missie. God Bless!
Yup!It really is beautiful!
Your lovely plant looks like a Datura. Pretty Colours.
Hi Valerie. Probably, it belongs to the family of Datura. I will try to ask my landlady the name of the flower. She owns the plant 🙂
It is very beautiful. Though I can’t see very well in the picture what it is, it seams to be an Angel’s trumpet. In that case, take care, it is poisonous.
Thanks for the beautiful contribution to Macro Flowers Saturday.
Hi Maia,
I don’t think it is an Angel’s trumpet. Because the plant also looks like the plant of an eggplant 😉
Thanks for the visit!
This is an intriguing flower! No idea what it is! But it is lovely!
Hi Gemma, I agree, It is very intriguing 🙂 but lovely. Thank you for the visit.
