Another bud coming through on the Echinacea.Toothy, hairy, a bit menacing in a way...

The echinacea has opened up fully now, but this bloom is from a week or so ago while it was in the process.

I kinda love how this turned out - like a starchy, formal portrait that should hang in a big house somewhere. It's a young Echinacea flower bud, the first of the season...

I just bought this coneflower or echinacea. It is called Parrot.

As I was getting ready to plant it, this bumble bee decided to be the main attraction and take center stage.
