I had to do some research on google to find out the name of this beauty. Well... I don't really know the names of any flowers that grow in my garden. Me and my mom just identify them with some nick-names so that we can understand which flower we are referring to ;)
This flower is famously known as Cockscomb. Simply because of the way it looks :o
She's an eye-catcher on my terrace now! This is the biggest it has gotten this year. I had a bigger one in 2008. It was the show-stopper of my garden then :D
