What’s In A Name?

I like to identify the flowers I shoot. So much of the time I neglect to take an image of the “all of it” and that makes identification much more tricky. Flowers can look similar, and leaves help in figuring out what it is. Once again, I neglected to capture this plant in its entirety. I posted an earlier image, calling it a hollyhock. Now I’m wondering … hollyhock or lavatera? They look so similar! At least they are both from the Malvaceae family. I suppose I should just identify them as that. When you see that I’ve titled an image by color you can usually assume I wasn’t certain of its identity!
