Flowers from today

I don't think FlowersFromToday is running today but will be back on Jan. 4th. I am posting anyway because I found this extra-ordinary flower in my friends yard.
Schizostylis coccinea--common name Crimson Flag--Butterfly Lily--Kaffir Lily.
It blooms in the fall October-December--so bright on a gloomy day.

If you want to see more flowers click on the Yellow Daisy on the right sidebar.
