Thelesperma Flowers

I didn’t take a lot of pictures today but did get out into the back garden of some friends. This is a Thelesperma, probably T. filifolium (stiff greenthread) growing there. It is a close relative to Coreopsis. In fact, until recently it was considered to be part of that genus. To be honest (hey, why not), I’m not completely sure this isn’t a Coreopsis, but I think I have it labeled right. Anyway, it is a nice bi-colored hybrid and I like the airiness of the photograph.
