Celosia 'Orange Temple Bells' -for drying

I collected these Celosia cristata 'Orange Temple Bells' just before several rainy days. They are now hanging upside-down in the basement rafters drying. I wish I could keep the color as bright.


Once dried they turn a lovely antique red/pink shade, with a very slender stem and wonderful shape.

Just a Sweet Little Photo Break

While walking out in the garden today I noticed that the goldenrod is just starting to bloom. I needed to cut some of the celosias for drying and was inspired to fill a mason jar with a bright and gorgeously untidy bouquet. Kanye came to inspect and seemed to approve.
