Spikey Purple with Yellow Pollen Flower

by Self Sagacity at 3:14 AM
Not from my garden but was brought in by Miss T. A wild flower from the library that stood out in color and in shape. A spiky look that turned out beautifully under the lens. The yellow pollen and the purple petals created a nice mane for the flower.

 I don't know what this flower is called, do you?  It almost looks like cactus and daisy mixed.

    It's really beautiful - especially for this time of year. It's probably a wild flower, but it's definitely something I'd have in my garden or in a vase indoors.

    Seeing the first shot, I thought it was a lily.

    This is a very vividly colored flower. No wonder Miss T picked it.
