Found them in Wal Mart parking lot where they had flowers displayed. I have no idea what they are, but thought they were pretty cool. #10213555

At least they won't burn up your neighbor's yard or blow up in your hand. Nice color palette, Carolyn! #10213979

The sun pretty much took care of burning up our yards. #10214004

Unusual for the 4th but perfect, Carolyn. Beautiful colors. #10215466

They are celosia, Carolyn! Cockscombs are different, because they have a "solid body" to them, quite different to the wispy celosia, but the same family. Lovely bright colours, we grow them here commonly - I guess they like the warmer climates. #10215818
