Ziggysmom says they're Billy Buttons. I hadn't heard the name before today.
I've been fascinated by them since the first time I saw them.

9. Oh my goodness, I love the yellow Billy Buttons! My mom grew those years ago.

Real name is Craspedia globosa, but I prefer Billy Buttons, Drumsticks or Sun Balls. They are a great flower for drying/preserving. You definitely have an eye for the unique things around you!

Your wonderful comments just took my breath away.
And also, thank you for identifying the yellow Billy Buttons. I had no idea what they were. Looking around for the unique or unusual things that people my world is a big part of who I am. |
