Velvet Crimson Cockscomb in Summer Light

A pair of intensely red cockscomb blooms (Celosia argentea var. cristata) commands attention with their distinctive, brain-like velvety folds. Positioned beside the pale, trailing remains of a white lily bloom, the fiery flower heads stand out brilliantly against a lush background of leafy green foliage and warm orange accents. The harsh midsummer sunlight highlights the dense, rich texture of the crests, emphasizing the dramatic variety within Snug Harbor's flower beds.
