Poor crop

[J087]

This is alarming. I just came across a garden with a "poor crop".
A dried-out flower which appeared to be dying. Once watered it turned back green.

It appears to be a black tulip seed. A rare seed.
So flowers (or just the rare kind) can actually die...??!!

This has happened to me alot but when you (keep) it watered it will turn out just fine!

Yes, they wither. But you can bring them back by watering them. Once they bloom they never dry out. I keep one of each rare pansy in my garden at all times for my neighbors to pollinate and they never need watering.
