| I am trying to find the name of a plant. It is deep red & grows tall, the flower smells like black pepper & the stalk has a smell like a geranium. It has a sturdy stalk, the petals fall like a jokers cap. There are maybe close to 2 dozen of these hanging from a round center. |
| Unfortunately, based on your description I am not certain which plant you have. It might be one of many. Perhaps a Kniphofia of some kind (You may need to cut and paste the complete url into your browser to make it work correctly.) http://www.mobot.org/gardening... or a Monarda http://www.mobot.org/gardening... or an Aquilegia http://www.mobot.org/gardening... or a Crocosmia http://www.mobot.org/gardening... or a Lobelia http://www.mobot.org/gardening... If none of these seem right, you could take a photo of the overall plant and a closeup of the bloom and consult with your local professionally trained nurseryman as well as possibly with your local county extension. I hope this helps. |
