Me again. I need to thank you, cause I wasn't aware of the other names for this far-out plant. We planted "Bachelor Buttons" two weeks ago and I didn't know what we were in for. THIS is what bloomed out: [link]

It's a coincidence that the angles are alike. I shot this from the hip. (I didn't "sight" it. ^^; Just lowered the camera and snapped. My back hurts too much today to get "down and dirty" with my subjects today. :( )
