Hello steemit.
Hello my friends too,
On this occasion I would like to explain one of the flower plants that we rarely encounter.
There is something interesting about this flower plant.
Namely, flowers that have red petals, a yellow crown of medium height. Why, interesting? Because this flower has the name Mickey Mouse.

The cause of this flower, which is called Latin Ochna serrulata, is called Mickey Mouse, because the appearance of the flower petals and fruit is similar to the face of the cartoon character Mickey Mouse.

Mickey Mouse flowers are actually yellow, with a crown of five. When this crown withers, all that is left is its five red petals.

Mickey Mouse plant is a shrub with an average height of two meters. Although able to grow up to three meters.
