Thanks for posting a link to our pictures, Vox... glad you liked them...

We have posted a second group of pictures from the International Flower
and Garden Festival at Epcot... you can find them at:

http://www.minandbills.net/disney/tr...4-gallery2.asp

The reason for my post is I need some help identifying a plant/flower in

the
second group of pictures.

Can anyone help me identify the red plant/flower shown in picture 29 and
again in picture 114?

Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated...


The plant is Amaranthus, sometimes called the summer poinsettia.

It is sold as a summer annual around here (Cincinnati), but is a less known
and underutilized plant.
