Two more mystery flowers

[tempestborn]

the bright pink one looks like amaranthus in some ways, but the flower doesn't. it's only about four inches tall. the purple one is a twin to some i gathered across the street in a big field of wildflowers; i was delighted to see i'd planted it, too (it was in one of those "pollinator mix" packets). i just need to know what they are.

ooooh, nooooooo! nobody saw them (or nobody knew?). i need to bump them up for an answer (hopefully).

Is the pink flower a Cockscomb?

Hi Tempest:

1. Crested Cockscomb, Celosia argentea fma. cristata
2. Lemon-scented Bee-balm, Monarda citriodora

Both are easy-to-grow, full sun annuals.
