The simpoh flower looks crinkly and elegant. Love its little starred center. The other yellow one has much flatter petals.

happy Merdeka day to you too,Tabib!
God bless our nation and may her people live in harmony and unity.

about that yellow flower(look like poppy one), I've seen it in Jama's blog she called it Sulphur Alder...

always enjoy and love your photos so much, thanks for sharing.

It's called Turnera Subulaa or commonly known as the white alder, plenty of that here in the public parks. Gorgeous flowers!
