Salpiglossis

Whew, how is that for a flower name?  These annuals, also called Painted Tongue, are new to me this year.  I have tried growing them from seed to no avail, so bought a sixpack and got three to grow.  These come in assorted colors but I am glad all mine are this deep maroon.  I cut some penstemon 'Husker Red' this morning and was holding that when I thought about cutting the Painted Tonge and they blended so well I made this bouquet
