What a great thread! Beautiful pictures everyone! I'll have to take some on our next trip. Meanwhile can anyone identify these flowers? They're right outside AK. DH took the shot because of the armadillo but I'm glad he got the flowers too--the blooms' shape and color remind me a bit of plumeria but the plant is very different from plumeria trees I've seen.

The Poly has the best flowers!

Such a great shot that I can almost smell it matthew_hull! That's a gardenia, one of my favorite flowers. You've convinced me to make a detour to the Poly on our next trip. Where can we find the gardenia bushes?

Where can we find the gardenia bushes?

Thanks for the ID on the flower. Now that you've identified it, it is so obviously a gardenia; I knew that.

These flowers were nearby the volcano pool, and that's as close as I can tell you.

Found this one growing outside the entrance to AK...

My mom loved this when we went to Disney a couple of years ago. Does anyone know the name of it?

Tree near Spaceship Earth / Innoventions East--does anyone know what it is?

They are really pretty, aren't they. They are called Powder Puff plants.

Here's my little photo. From just outside the entrance to the Animal Kingdom.

If anyone can tell me how I can make my photos larger, I'd appreciate it.
I have them in Photobucket & when I try to resize, it doesn't give me a larger option.
Could it be the way I have them stored at home? Thanks

Tree near Spaceship Earth / Innoventions East--does anyone know what it is?

It looks like a Crepe Myrtle tree.

Thanks mickeystoontown, I zoomed in, compared it to other flower pics online and you're right! We don't see crepe myrtle much around here (planting zone 6-7) and when we do they're much smaller, just around 8-10 ft.

Here's another flower at Epcot that I don't know, again any ID would be welcome:

You're welcome gk09. We love crepe myrtle trees and have many planted in our yard.

Here's one from the Caribbean Beach resort grounds:
