Orange Firecracker Flowers From My Garden

As the weather is getting hotter, some of the plants in my garden seem happier than the others. One of the happy plants is this pot of yellowish orange firecracker plants.
Throughout the cool weather, there was no sign of flowers. 
 Recently, the plants started to flower.
The flowers are multi layered petals.
 Behind these orange firecrackers are the single layered petals pink firecracker flowers.
 These bright orange flowers help to brighten up my garden and bring a smile to my face.

Who is like the wise?
Who knows the explanation of things?
A person's wisdom brightens their face and changes its hard appearance.
(Ecclesiastes 8:1, New International Version-NIV)
Linking to Good Fences.

  10. These are very pretty but different from the ones Mr. BA has in his garden that he calls firecracker plant. Maybe i can take a picture and post and you an see the difference.

    Fences that don't hide the beauty of what is behind them are my favorites.
