Hi everyone, :)

I was hoping that someone here could help me identify a specific flower. I have searched everywhere that I can think of but have had next to no luck. The only thing I have come up with, while searching random descriptions of the flower, is this link,

Baby Brain Flower on Flickr - Photo Sharing! (http://www.flickr.com/photos/22381362@N06/2188187221/)

which is the flower I'm looking for but when searching the name of it nothing comes up.

thanks in advance to anyone and everyone who can tell me what its called, I realise the answer is probably going to be simple so forgive my simple mindedness :D

I think it's a weed - are the leaves fuzzy? They grow along my fence and I keep pulling them out. The roots are pretty extensive.

Take the photo to your local garden shop - they'll know right away.

If you look at the right side of your linked page,you will see the name "brain flower" as part of the tag of this picture.

I did a bit of a search on that name and found that it is also called "CELOSIA" or "cockscomb"
