Today I’m participating in Floral Friday Fotos. If you enjoy my images, I encourage you to subscribe and receive updates when I post new photos, usually 3 to 5 times a week.
Celosia are ornamental plants in the amaranth family, Amaranthaceae. Their name is derived from the Greek word κηλος (kelos), which means burned. Celosia comes in a variety of colors, but when you spot the red, orange and yellow Celosia flowers, you can understand why their flame-like look earned them their name. I hope these Celosia blooms bring some color to your day. Enjoy!



Nice are your friday photos!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful colours. They look like flames.
Thank you! They sure earned their name.
The colors are full of energy! Like vitamins on a cold winterday in Norway:) Thanks.
You’re welcome. I’m sure a few people could use the warm colors today.
What vibrant colours!
They sure are!
Truly beautiful flowers – I really like the first picture with the red and yellow flower side by side, giving the impression of flames. Definitely a high energy flower!
I’d love to have them in my garden since they bring so much color. But they’re somehow edible and I’m afraid the squirrels would just snack on them. Maybe I’ll try it out.
The trick is to plant so many that you’ll hardly notice that the squirrels helped themselves!
Haha, I never thought of that! Although, I seem to remember they munched on ALL of my begonias this summer, and they were a lot of them…
They are on fire! Gorgeous!
They sure are!
Gorgeous!
Thank you very much, Cee!
I have photos of these flowers too, but I didn’t know what they were called. Thanks for posting, now I know!
You’re welcome. I’m glad I could help!
