Bronze

This big flower grows up to 4.8 feet (1.4 meters) tall. Its brown stem is thin and splits into numerous branching stems a quarter of the way up, and the tiny, slate and cream leaves are wispy with toothed edges. The leaves grow in pairs along the length of the stem.

Each stem splits 5 to 11 times; a single large flower grows at the end of each split. The flowers are 73 cm (28.7 inches) wide, with solid bronze petals decorated with white dots and a black central disk. The flower head is largely flat with 18 raised round-tipped petals. They fall easily.

It has the faintest scent that smells like cigarette smoke, and it has an average amount of pollen; it does not cause many allergic reactions. It is pollinated by a small species of bird.
