Guest Photos by Fernymoss: Yellow Celosia Sports

Last summer I wrote several posts on these Celosia sports in their 2006 incarnations, both yellow and red ones, those odd mutants who have crossed over the years and just keep coming back slightly modified each successive year. So here's some of this year's crop ... they're not as numerous as they have been in the past, but the weeds have gotten away from us for a while and have choked out some, I think. And earlier this summer it seemed that there just weren't as many as in previous years, so I think next year will probably entail planting a bunch of new 'pure' ones and let the process start all over again, along with those who come from this year's plants as well.

Long time readers may recognize the first shot as similar to a sport I posted about this time last year, and these particular ones are pretty much in the same spot the original 'pineapple' top we had growing last year. (Make sure you look at the large version to see the bonus bugs!)

The second shot is a relatively new one this year, probably metamorphosed between and plumosa variety and the more traditional cristata, or 'Cockscomb' variety, though anyone's guess is as good as mine. I can only really try to classify them by the shape and colour, both of which are way off from what you'll find in the garden centers. Let's just call this one "Bottle Brush," and consider it named!

Photos courtesy of Fernymoss. Taken 13 August, 2007 out in the front boulder bed.

Both of these are such a lovely yellow. Fernymoss, they're great. Do the plants grow wild?

olivia said...

G'morning IVG and katieb.

LOL IVG, I love the sports ... :)

Bottle brush is an apt name, I love the shape of that one ... They remind of sparklers in motion, twisting and shooting off light.

Speaking of Cthulu…

I wonder if the "slight modifications every year" are the plants working their way back to the genetic mainstream, or just getting weirder?

Iowa Victory Gardener said...

Hi there everybody!

KB, I guess you could say they sort of "grow wild" because we just let them seed where they will and come up as they like; and revert or prevert as they please, just to see what weirdos end up growing. I like letting certain flowers use the garden as a laboratory for experiments!

Hadn't thought of sparklers Olivia, but that works too! And FAR, yeah Cthulu does come to mind again doesn't it? I think they are just getting weirder over time, but maybe some day they will revert enough they'll look like what we originally planted. Actually I suspect that when reverting they'll actually become less attractive and just end up being stalks with seeds on them, but you never know... as long as they look interesting, they've got a place in the garden!

Family Man said...

Great shots Fernymoss! The yellow and white does stand out among the green IVG. The Bottle Brush looks very pretty, but delicate at the same time.

I didn't get to say it the other day, but the Kopper King top picture is wonderful. I agree it looks like a butterfly.

It's almost 105 here, hope ya'll are having better weather.

katiebird said...

I wonder if I could find seeds for them someplace -- I think they're lovely.
