Description
Celosia spicata
Visually stunning cut flower adds intrigue in the garden!
This unusual cut flower grows spikes of pink flowers that fade to white as they bloom upward on the stalk. It can be used fresh or dry as a cut flower, as flowers hold their shape and color when dry. Cut and grow again--just keeps coming back! 30-36" tall. Open-pollinated. Gently self-sows.
200 seeds.
Seeds grown by Affinity Farm in Moscow, Idaho.
Directions: Start indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost and transplant outside after frost. Requires light for germination so cover very lightly or gently push into soil surface. We recommend keeping the tray or pot uncovered, and a heat mat at 75 degrees.
