          I grew it from seeds 3 years ago, this is the first time it has flowered and it certainly is a very interesting looking plant - the flowering stalk/heads keep on sprouting out new ones in different directions, so each head grows bigger and bigger and more and more looks like a hedgehog on a bad-hair day:heehee:.

          I'll collect some seeds if anyone in the forum is interested. Please let me know.

                    I agree with Anthony - that is stunning!

                    I certainly am!

                        Had some chrysanths still going strong (left over from arrangements I did for a friend's wedding) so added some flowers from the garden. They brighten up the dining room anyway.

                        Oh and here's the arrangements I did for last weekend, mostly bits from the garden.
