🔥Double Mixed Color Cosmos Flower Seeds

Cosmos (Cosmos Bipinnatus Double Click Mix)

This gorgeous cosmos mix features tall plants with large, fully-double and semidouble blooms. Featuring shades of carmine, pink, and white, these blooms will make for excellent cut flowers and an even better garden addition. These sturdy plants will reach up to 4 feet tall and provide a vibrant display to all. The blooms are also effective at attracting pollinators (especially butterflies) to the garden.

For the best flower production, plant in soils of average fertility with moderate water. Cosmos plants tolerate heat, drought, and poor soils. Remove spent blooms to promote additional flowers. Cosmos will usually self-sow if some spent blossoms are kept on plants. Cut flowers typically last 5 to 9 days if blooms are harvested when the petals are just beginning to unfold: the flowers will still fully open in the vase.

How to Grow

Cosmos seeds should be sown directly into prepared seed beds outdoors after all risk of frost has passed. For a natural setting, the seeds can be scattered onto the prepared soil.

Lightly rake the soil over the seeds at a depth of 1/16 inch and keep the area moist. Under proper conditions, these seeds will germinate in 14-21 days.

These plants will self-sow and return the next year if some spent blooms are allowed to remain on the plant. However, deadheading will prolong the bloom season for the current year.
