Does anyone have any knowledge of this plant, incl. botanical name,
preferred growing conditions, etc. I bought it at our garden club plant
sale last night, and NO ONE knows what it is, but some knowledgeable types
hazarded a guess that it is Standing Cypress.
It looks like a cosmos, with very threadlike foliage that has a rank,
unpleasant smell; has a little dark red daisylike flower (it's in bloom
now); and is about 10" tall. Any info would be appreciated.
