Is that a flower in your garden, or are you just happy to see me?

Anyone know what kind of flower that is?

An elephant-head amaranth?

I need to go buy one of those and plant it in my front yard for shits and giggles. It would be fun to start a phallic garden, I think.

Sometimes a giant red throbbing dong-flower is just a flower...

I would refer to it as the Garden of Earthly Delights, ico. And include some of those real vaginal looking orchids just so the dong-flowers don't get lonely.

jrossi, you could have two-in-one, although the smell might knoock you over.

They are interesting flowers but some sort of bugs really ate on them here, thought about trying them again this year but did not.
