Hey all, I need some help identifying a flower in my garden. And, no, I didn't even think to try to get a picture of it....duh! Anyway, it's a neat flower but I've never seen one like it. Last year I sowed a packet of wildflower seeds and some are blooming the first time this year. This thing is about 18" tall with a cluster of flowers at the top. This one is a dark purple and another that hasn't opened yet looks like it's going to be white. The flowers are huge, about the size of a tulip and are bell shaped. There's about 15 blooms in the cluster at the top of the spike. I've been searching the internet but so far haven't found anything that looks like this thing. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks! :o) Susan
