A friend of mine got a flower at one of the local nursery's, the clerk said he had no idea what the name of it was, the bloom looks like a bee balm but in the center a stalk comes up and then another bloom and another stalk and another bloom, this one had four blooms on it, does anyone have an idea what it is or where I can find a photo?
