OTHER: If fire was pink, I do think this is indeed just what it would look like! The colors are really very dazzling! Actually, this plant gets its nickname because of the ease with which it can quickly colonize itself in areas that were burnt out from forest fires, sometimes turning the entire area into a field of color.
