Safflower

"Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) Is a highly branched, herbaceous, thistle-like annual plant. It is commercially cultivated for vegetable oil extracted from the seeds. Plants are 30 to 150 cm (12 to 59 in) tall with globular flower heads having yellow, orange, or redflowers. Each branch will usually have from one to five flower heads containing 15 to 20 seeds per head. Safflower is native to arid environments having seasonal rain. It grows a deep taproot which enables it to thrive in such environments."

The way the flowers bloom from the bud is really interesting.
They do smell strongly like vegetable oil though.
Seriously.
I doubt I will be putting them in a vase again. Lol.
