grandma asked in Home & GardenGarden & Landscape · 1 decade ago

What is this?....HELP?

Please help to identify, I posted this question before But I still do not know what it is.

It has leaves like a cosmo,

it is about 6-8 inches tall

It has 3 round golfball blooms, no petals (at least not yet) the front of the golf ball bloom tapers off into a star, with very soft spikes all over the bloom.

The entire plant is apple green in color.

It is not a bladder campanion but it looks alot like it except for the feathery spikes.

I once gathered wild seeds from the forest here in Colorado, but that was several years ago.

What could it be? It is driving me crazy!!!

ps. sorry for my comments on my last ?..I am having trouble with y&a what I type and what is posted is differernt..words are missing.....weird!

    Take a cutting of it to a garden center - they should be able to tell you exactly what it is.

    Does this plant have like big pods on it with blue flowers. It sounds to me like it may be a Love in the mist/Devil's bush.But I would have to see a picture of it.

    Sounds beautiful! I would love to see it myself being a plantaholic. This might help:
