Unidentified flower taken at Melbourne Botanical Gardens. I am not sure whether these filamentous structures are stamens or actually tiny florets. Perhaps someone will know.

Common Ringlet butterfly sipping nectar from tiny Queen Ann's Lace florets.
Uncommon migrant from Canada though more abundant this year than in the past.
Cerastium
Tiniest florets in the garden, growing out of a little wall about a foot high on the patio. I think some varieties of Cerastium are larger than this one, but this is tiny. We have a couple of varieties of Saxifrage that have very small florets, but they are a bit bigger than these I think.

"The unreal is more powerful than the real, because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it, because it's only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles, wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on".

Common during the summer.
Osteospermum has beautiful daisy-like flowers in a variety of colors. Like other members of the Asteraceae family, the blooms are actually flower heads composed of a central disc which contains a number of tiny individual flowers known as florets. Most of the species have flat petals, although there are some lovely varieties with spoon-shaped petals.
Taken at Centennial Park Conservatory
Have a beautiful new week everyone!π
Thank you for your visits, kind comments, invitations, awards and faves. Always greatly appreciated.

Taken for the Macro Mondays theme of star. These are individual florets from an allium head which I had dried to use as a decoration. Cropped to be well within the 3" rule.
Skirret's florets are aromatic but I don't know what they taste like. Its roots - which I've not eaten yet - are said to compare to delicious salsify, one of my many favorite vegetables. Apparently the little flowers are sweet enough to attract a variety of insects among which this delicate female fruit or gall fly, Terellia tussilaginis. It's about 5 mm long so the individual flowers are about half that in diameter.
Dandelion
A dandelion flower head composed of numerous small florets (top). The seed head is shown below it.
A macro view of a broccoli floret, taken for the Macro Mondays group theme, "Low key". The frame represents a span of two-inches across.
I took a lot of shots trying to make broccoli look cool.
Technical info:
The scene was illuminated by a single steady LED cube at 11-o'clock.
Lens: Tokina AT - X M100 AF PRO D(AF 100mm f / 2.8 Macro).

Dahlia is a genus of bushy, tuberous, herbaceous perennial plants native to Mexico. A member of the Asteraceae (formerly Compositae) family of dicotyledonous plants, its garden relatives thus include the sunflower, daisy, chrysanthemum, and zinnia. The stems are leafy, ranging in height from as low as 30 cm to more than 1.8β2.4 m. The majority of species do not produce scented flowers. Like most plants that do not attract pollinating insects through scent, they are brightly colored, displaying most hues, with the exception of blue. The dahlia was declared the national flower of Mexico in 1963. Dahlias are perennial plants with tuberous roots, though they are grown as annuals in some regions with cold winters. While some have herbaceous stems, others have stems which lignify in the absence of secondary tissue and resprout following winter dormancy, allowing further seasons of growth. As a member of the Asteraceae, the dahlia has a flower head that is actually a composite (hence the older name Compositae) with both central disc florets and surrounding ray florets. 32204
