Mysterious pink fuzzy squiggly flower?
I saw this at Albertsons and absolutely had to have it! What is it? Lol I am horrible, I don't even know if I can take care of this plant well enough but I purchased it anyway. Who wouldn't? Can anyone tell me what it is? I can't find anything online.

I have never seen this plant in my entire life, it is crazy looking. |

Looks like a Celosia to me. C. cristata to be specific.

Cock's Comb.
I grew up with this. 
They are annuals, but seed very easily and grow all over the place in the garden once you have it.
They come in different shape and sizes and colors.
I wish I had a garden.  |

I don't know how I missed not seeing this plant all my life? Now that I know they grow easily from seed. I will be doing that next year |

Well space is my problem 😔 I have the one I purchased so next year I will have a pot set aside for a variety that I will place together in one planter but just maybe if it finishes blooming too early then I will start rigth away! |
