Today's flower like yesterday's is a variety of Lamiaceae which are part of the mint or deadnettle family.
This particular plant is Salvia microphylla "Hot Lips" and it is easy to see how it gets the name. I wonder if the name was also inspired by the character Hot Lips Houlihan from the movie and TV show M.A.S.H.
Whatever the inspiration this is a lovely little flower and deserving of a place in my daily blog.
