    Not sure what this flower is. It's growing in my wildflower section in the garden. I bought a wildflower mix but there's only one of this growing so i was thinking whether it could be a seed that's been scattered by a bird or the wind. Any ideas please! :) 20170805133714_IMG_0981.JPG 20170805-114025.jpg
