Latin Cosmos bipinnatus & C. sulfureus
The Petite Cosmos Blend is a beautiful and shorter mixture of colourful cosmos. The mature height of this mixture is between 3-4'. This in our opinion is the perfect height for cosmos as they have enough height to make a statement yet they are not overwhelming other important aspects of the garden. The colors of this blend are white, rose, magenta, and ruby, all with a contrasting yellow center. This is a colorful mixture to add vibrance to any flower garden. Once cosmos have developed some roots they are very drought and heat tolerant making them applicable to almost any style of gardening. As an added bonus, cosmos are a wonderful way to attract pollinators to your garden. What more could you ask for?
Growing cosmos from seed is extremely easy. Germination is quick and should show between 3-10 days. If temperatures are cooler it will take a little bit longer. One of the things we love about cosmos is that you can direct sow them as long as your soil is loose. Simply scatter seeds into a prepared garden area and water well. Of course you will want to do this after last frost. If you have a shorter season or just want a head start, you can also start indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost. Remove spent flowers regularly to prolong flowering time. Plant in full sun for optimal results and flowering.
