Description
Cosmos sulphureus
Bright orange blooms bloom above finely-cut foliage all summer long!
This non-stop bloomer grows to 4' tall and wide, producing copious amounts of 1-2" wide, bright orange, single petaled flowers above unique, finely-lobed leaves. An easy-care showstopper of a summer annual. The flowers can also be used as a dye plant. Open-pollinated. If you are looking for a Cosmos variety that works well as a cut flower, we recommend our Sensation Mix or Psyche White.
Seeds grown by Drunken Sailor Farm in Boise, Idaho and Plum Shed Seeds in Sandpoint, Idaho.
80 seeds.
Directions: Direct seed after last frost and thin to 12" spacing. Or start indoors 6 weeks before last frost and transplant outside after last frost.
