Sense: “A flowering plant, Celosia argentea, having brightly coloured flowers of several shades.” Tagged by Tooironic two days ago, not listed. J3133 (talk) 07:48, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you for posting this (I forgot). I note that this sense is not in the OED or English Wikipedia. ---> Tooironic (talk) 11:06, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
- It's mentioned a number of times and there is a cultivar named Red Fox. I expect it is yet another name for a plant or animal that has been used but doesn't meet CFI. Vox Sciurorum (talk) 12:34, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
- IMHO, I have cited a slightly different definition. I could not cite the one given exactly. DCDuring (talk) 02:47, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
