Cosmos

“Spanish priests grew cosmos in their mission gardens in Mexico. The evenly placed petals led them to christen the flower "Cosmos," the Greek word for harmony or ordered universe.”

The light on the flower and the dark background make for a beautiful picture.

Thank you for commenting on my photo of the cosmos. These are growing in our backyard garden, and they really do glow fluorescent like this.
