could it be the work of just one mischievous garden fairie ? or is there a top secret organization at work here. at the moment te is very little information available on this flower. aside from the obvious that is. that would be it is pretty. red. ruffled. hmm do we really need any more ? please enjoy. just don’t tell. or if you do swear them to secrecy…
a north east ohio garden 
Another gorgeous flower.
Most of mother nature’s flowers are that way ! thanks roberta !
clearly the work of a rogue fairie
There was a small note at the door. The fairies like your compliment. They all accept the credit and the compliment… thanks beth !
I couldn’t help myself. I told, but I think the secret is safe.
I am sure you exercised the utmost discretion. Or at least slipped whoever an ACME Utmost Forgetion pill right afterwards…
Yeah it was during a Wall Street Journal interview. Told the guy mum’s the word.
John, your blog is a joy to the eyes! Literally!! This picture is no exception! 🌸😁
Glad you enjoy the blooms. Thanks
Pretty, red and ruffled is plenty for me
I might need to write that recipe down. Thanks Dan !
