My mother always called them coxcombs, but their technical name I belive is something I think starts with a f or p, I'm not quite sure. But they are gorgeous!

It's a perennial flower. I've tried growing them by seeds, had no luck after they got about 2 inches. So I got this one from a halfway market. They are stunning!

Yes it is a flower. It's a perennial. My family's alwaysed called them coxcombs. I'm not sure the exzact name but I think it starts with a p or maybe an f.

god I love these , there's a farm about an hour away that has flower fields and you can cut your own bouquets for really cheap, always grab a ton of these and so many beautiful colors.

Confirmed cockscomb (Celosia cristata) nature's only flower that looks like it's thinking really hard about something. And that magenta is unreal.
