Copperbell

This modest-sized flower grows up to 1.8 feet (53 cm) tall. Its orange stem is wispy and splits into dozens of branching stems three quarters of the way up, and the small, gray-green leaves are dark copper on the underside and are very thin with smooth edges. The leaves alternate on the stem from the base up to about halfway.

3 to 5 medium-sized flowers grow on alternate sides up the length of the stem. The flowers are 6 cm (2.4 inches) wide, with petals that are either red or faded yellow, with a yellow center. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of up to 50 petals. They detach easily.

It has a delicate scent that smells like sweat, and it has very little pollen. It is pollinated by insects , but is also visited by a small species of bird.
