My first thought was poppy but I knew better. I had to come to take a peek. Very cool!

Interesting plant, and pretty banner, Casey! :thumbsup:

My first impression was one of Baja's cacti.

Is it Love in a Mist, Black Cumin or another specie?
May have to add it to our 2021 garden.

Besides being a pretty plant for the garden, it evidently has health benefits,
as well as being a spice.

I've found more new, interesting & pretty plants here just
through the banners.
Great community, too. =)

This is a fascinating genus of more than a dozen species. As I have said previously the banner forum is an "eye-opener" full of useful information. This plant adds to our continuing knowledge. Thanks Casey for sharing and Cal for the links!

The nigellas were so prolific this spring. They have such interesting flowers and the seed pods are very cool.

Marilyn, here is the pic:

Cal, I'm not 100% sure but this one may be Cramer's Plum (n. damascena). I grew a couple of varieties and the pods in the photo are from the one that bloomed the most, you can see them in the background of the photo. I also grew Midnight (n. papillosa), Miss Jekyll Alba (n. damascea), Miss Jekyll Blend (n. damascea), and African Bride (n. papillosa). It's definitely a great flower to add to the garden.
