Cockscomb flower

My photography is about Cockscomb flower. It is an annual herb and is very common as a garden plant. The tightly clustered blooms are said to resemble a rooster's comb, thus the common name "cockscomb". Flower colors include red, yellow, orange, gold, and pink. The celosias or cockscombs are erect, branching plants with oval or lance-shaped, strongly veined leaves 2-6 in (5.1-15.2 cm) long and hundreds of tiny flowers packed in dense, brightly colored flowerheads which usually stand above the foliage. The Cristata cultivars are good in containers, and prized for Japanese flower arrangements. In south India, cockscombs are used extensively for the Onam "Pookkalam". The origin of this plant is uncertain. I am going to share with my friends. I wish that you'll be happy after seeing this just.

Have a good day. I hope you like this. Thanks for visiting my post
