Who can identify these yellow flowers?
Hi everyone!
I've recently come in the possession of a painting that contains a vase with yellow flowers, and I'd like to know what kind of flowers they are. If you have a second, please check out http://www.meulie.net/Fotootjes/2_paintings/painting1 and tell me your (educated) guess.

Who can identify these yellow flowers?
Xref: kermit sci.bio.botany:15186 rec.gardens:252628

Do you mean these: http://graysharbor.wsu.edu/Weeds/tansy.gif ?
I can see some similarity, I don't think they're the same... The tansy seems to have its buds closer together than the kind on the painting... Thank you for your swift reply though! Any more/other suggestions?

If the painter is from the warmer climes, probably an acacia (wattle).

In article , Evert
Meulie esq. writes Do you mean these: http://graysharbor.wsu.edu/Weeds/tansy.gif ? I can see some similarity, I don't think they're the same... The tansy seems to have its buds closer together than the kind on the painting... Assuming that the painting is accurate, it's not tansy. For a start the foliage is different. The gross form of the inflorescence looks similar to that of Buddleia x weyeriana, but the jizz is wrong for this. The gross form of the inflorescence again looks similar to that of Acacia, but the foliage is wrong for this. I interpret the plant to have capitate clusters of flowers borne at intervals along leafless flowering branches. I am assuming that the foliage belongs to the same plant. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley |

My first impression, too, was Acacia, Then I thought maybe Podocarpus. Now I
can't decide :-) elizabeth "Gene Newcomb" wrote in message ... If the painter is from the warmer climes, probably an acacia (wattle). Gene Newcomb "Evert Meulie esq." wrote: PS.

The painting is signed with 'Latour'. This makes me believe it's
either an original or a copy of a work by Henri Fantin-Latour ( http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/fantin-latour/ ), a French painter. Greetings, Evert Meulie Gene Newcomb wrote in message .. . If the painter is from the warmer climes, probably an acacia (wattle). Gene Newcomb |

Certainly acacia.
Certainly not dealbata, may be retinoides, because leaves Marcel Roche "Evert Meulie" a écrit dans le message de news:6f71f06f6f242deb45d38d44986bae3e.107262@mygat e.mailgate.org... Hi everyone!

You might be right here... It does look quite a bit like the various
images of wattle I have found on the Internet. If only I'd be able to find the painting in some catalogue, then the 'mystery' would be solved quickly I'd think...

I did send before saying Mimosa,
You say the painting is French........well for many years the French sent "Mimosa" to the UK as a cut flower from around February. The plant in question is Acacia dealbata "Silver Wattle" see http://www.anbg.gov.au/images/photo_...lbata_069.html -- David Hill Abacus nurseries www.abacus-nurseries.co.uk |
