Copper

Flower type: Annual (Grows upwards by clinging to almost any surface.)

This average-sized flower grows up to 6 inches (15 cm) tall. Its brown stems grow in bunches of 8 and are thin with a curved tip, and the huge, orange leaves are 6 pointed with ripped edges. Many leaves grow at the base of the stem, and more leaves alternate on the stem from about halfway up, up to the flower head.

A single large flower sits at the end of each stem. The flowers are 10 cm (3.9 inches) wide, with solid copper petals decorated with hazel lines and a yellow central disk. The flower head is largely flat with 33 raised narrow petals. They fall easily.

It has a delicate scent that smells like marzipan, and it has excessive amounts of pollen; it can can cause allergic reactions. It is pollinated by insects and is particularly attractive to a specific species.


It is suitable for creating flexible, durable textiles
