Copper

Flower type: Annual (Stores water in its stem)

This enormous flower grows up to 15.2 feet (4.6 meters) tall. Its gray-green stem is thin and splits into 10 branching stems halfway up, and the giant, moss green leaves are light florescent green and subtle orange on the underside and are pleated with rounded edges. The leaves alternate on the stem.

A single medium-sized flower sits at the end of each stem. The flowers are 106 cm (41.7 inches) wide, with copper petals on the lower layer and lilac petals decorated with silver dots on the inner layer. The central disk is cyan. The flower head is largely flat with dozens of raised narrow petals. They are hardy.

It has a powerful scent that smells like soap, and it has lots of pollen; it can cause severe allergic reactions. It is pollinated by the wind, but is also particularly attractive to insects.
