I've always known of this plant as "Celosia Plumosa" (That's "Celosee-UH" not "Celosee-AH") but Wikipedia redirects to "Celosia Argentea" (a nice name) and notes that it's also called "Plumed Cockscomb," which is not nearly as nice a name if we're trying to keep it fancy.
Like a cross between a cake pop and my favorite holiday, they typically look like fuzzy little Christmas trees on stakes in vibrant colors.
I don't have any interesting stories, I just like the look of these flowers and should probably see about growing some at this house. I think I've grown them in the past but can't remember if it was here and they died or if it was at the old house. Here's a bunch more photos on Google Images.
It's been a fun (but exhausting) month. I hear Latrina's got something less intensive in store for February. Can't wait.
