Thank you to Eric in SF@Flickr for sharing today's image (original via BPotD Flickr Group Pool).
Fringe flower is a relative of witchhazel (in fact, it is sometime given the same common name). The Plants for a Future database reports on the medicinal uses and cultivation of this east Asian species.





Great photo. Although the red-leaved Loropetalums seem to get all the 'buzz' the green-leaved, white-flowered species varieties shown are fantastically beautiful garden plants!
Ooops. Linked to the wrong photo on Flickr.
Fixed.
