Copper

This modest-sized flower grows up to 1.3 feet (41 cm) tall. Its blood red and white stem is very thick and splits into many branching stems a quarter of the way up, and the large, gray or peach leaves are wispy with irregular 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 medium-sized flower sits at the end of the stem. The flowers are 8 cm (3.1 inches) wide, with gentle blue petals that gradient shift to copper on the outer edge. The central disk is dark brown. The flower head is largely flat with dozens of widely spaced round-tipped petals. They are sturdy.

It has a delicate scent that smells like sweat, and it has lots of pollen; it does not cause any allergic reactions. It is a self-pollinator, but is also visited by a small species of bird.
