ORANGE FLOWERS

	WILDFLOWERS FROM THE FIELDS: ORANGE
	Knifophia. More a desert flower in appearance, KNIFOPHIA (Tritoma, Red Hot Poker) is an unusual perennial both in flora and in foliage which will actually withstand our hardy zone-6 New England winters. The midsummer blossom adds a vitality and sense of festivity to mixed arrangements which is seldom paralleled the rest of the year. Safflower. Carthamus tinctorius - or safflower - is one the oldest cultivated plants of record.
