  1. I find it most frustrating try to get a good shot of plants like this with small flowers on a large plant, I am torn between a close-up of the flower or a full plant shot. I usually end up taking both. Posted 10 years ago

"Ipomopsis aggregata" is a species of biennial flowering plant in the phlox family, Polemoniaceae, commonly known as scarlet trumpet, scarlet gilia, or skyrocket because of its scarlet red flowers with lobes curving back as if blown back by rocketing through the air.
