The genus name "Lampranthus" means "shining-flowers" in Latin.
Lampranthus roseus is an evergreen plant in the Aizoaceae family.
Native to Europe, Northern Africa and the temperate zones in Western Asia. This summer flowering coastal poppy grows on shingle beaches, sand dunes and cliffs. Will flower in June and later followed by the horned like curling seedpods and if these are broken the plant will exude a yellow sap that is poisonous.
'Akabana' is a cultivar (hybrid) plant, red flowering form.

White Poplar trees, both trembling and quaking, have male and female flowers (catkins) on separate trees, appearing as fuzzy, dangling clusters before the leaves emerge in spring, with male catkins releasing pollen and female catkins developing into seed-bearing capsules.

This shot was taken on the same morning as the previous image, we planned to visit 3 of the nature reserves on the mendips starting with Draycott Sleights, then moving to GB Gruffy and finally over to Ubley Warren to photograph this Bee Orchid.
We had checked all the sites out the day before and located 2 Bee Orchids, but could I find them the next morning! Eventually found this individual orchid with just the single flower on the side of a small mound. The local rabbits had done their usual fine job of keeping the grass cut short making photographing it quite easy.

Contrary to the earlier shot of the bee orchid, had absolutely no problem finding this species at GB Gruffy.
This year there seems to be more than ever so it was just a case of choosing one. Whilst there are only a few rabbits which inhabit one part of the reserve, there are a small number of ponies put there to manage the flora, so in a few places the orchids are surrounded by tightly cropped grass.

Bottlebrushes are members of the genus Melaleuca and belong to the family Myrtaceae. They are closely related to paperbark melaleucas, which also have 'bottlebrush' shaped flower spikes. Most Bottlebrushes occur in the east and south-east of Australia. Two species occur in the south-west of Western Australia and four species in New Caledonia. Bottlebrushes can be found growing from Australia's tropical north to the temperate south. They often grow in damp or wet conditions such as along creek beds or in areas which are prone to floods.
This species is probably the best known bottlebrush and is widely cultivated. The bright red flower-spikes appear in summer and autumn. Crimson Bottlebrush grows well in wet conditions and usually reaches 4 m. Plants should be lightly pruned and fertilised after flowering. Neglected or mis-shapen plants respond to hard pruning.

Navigating a Callistemon (bottlebrush) inflorescence requires a different strategy than visiting a flat-petaled flower. Lacking a central landing platform, the plant presents a dense arrangement of elongated, bright red stamens. To reach the pollen and nectar, a honeybee (Apis mellifera) must squeeze directly through this forest of filaments.
As the bee maneuvers between the tightly packed structures, pollen grains attach to her body, which she gradually sweeps into the corbiculae (pollen baskets) on her hind legs. In the process, she transfers pollen between different filaments, facilitating pollination for the plant. Unlike the straightforward landing on open blossoms, this is a more demanding approach — yet an efficient, functional one, where the insect secures resource-rich pollen while fulfilling the plant's reproductive cycle.

Red Bottlebrush Shrub flower photographed in the Vilar do Golf Resort located in Quinta do Lago in Almancil in the Algarve of Southern Portugal.
Callistemon species have commonly been referred to as bottlebrushes because of their cylindrical, brush like flowers resembling a traditional bottle brush. They are mostly found in the more temperate regions of Australia, especially along the east coast and typically favour moist conditions so when planted in gardens thrive on regular watering.[citation needed] However, two species are found in Tasmania and several others in the south-west of Western Australia. At least some species are drought-resistant and some are used in ornamental landscaping elsewhere in the world.
