Going to pick my daughter up the other day from her penultimate da of 4th grdae, I noticed these flowers in front of the school. I'd seen them before when I dropped her off but the shape of them, seen from a distance, appeared to be not yet bloomed. Seen up close they turned out to be blooming and really interesting so, disregarding the rain, I stopped to take a picture. I have no idea what they are but they sure are cool looking.

One of their common names is "Red Hot Poker" and they are great for hummingbirds.
Go back after they have gone to seed and liberate a few seeds. They sure are eye catching.

Those are beautiful!
They look so beautiful and luscious and refreshing. I hope your weekend matches.
Seems like lots of people in our area have a patch of them. I really love the ones that are distinctly red, orange and yellow from top to bottom.
