My Lust for Cockcomb

Cockscomb flowers are also known as Wool Flowers or Brain Celosia, suggestive of a highly colored brain. The flowers belong to the amaranth family. Cockscomb Flower blooms from late summer through late fall. But we've been getting our hands on them now in pale green; which I love mixed with any type of pod. This truly is one of my fav's for the intense colors and the pure saturation of color within the brain/bud.
