This is a flower I am growing in a barrel in the backyard. I'm sure it's kin to a daisy but I just couldn't believe how much it looks like the flame of a gas stove when you first turn it on.
That sure does look like a gas ring.
Sorry about lack of participation over the last few days. I've had a surprise visit from my daughter and her younger son, who flew down for my 60th. Kept me busy, but the've gone home again now, and the place feels empty.
