Daisy like flowers born on fern like foliage. This cosmos has an excellent color range of crimson, rose, pink, white all with yellow centers. Sow seed directly in the garden once all danger of frost has passed. Start seed indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost for earlier blooms. Transplants easily. Blooms readily from July to first frost. Plant in the vegetable garden, allow flowers to mature and the next year you will be rewarded with many new seedlings, even after working the soil.

Planting Directions: Sow seed indoors 4 to 5 weeks before last frost. Plant seed 1/8” deep in sterile seed starting mix with a soil temperature of 70°to 75?. Direct sow in the garden after last frost in well prepared soil. Transplant outdoors when daytime temperatures begin to warm in spring. Plant in full sun in any type soil although cosmos will flower more abundantly if planted in poorer soil. Water regularly until plants are well established then cut back on watering. Cosmos tolerates dry soil.  Pinch back plants when young to encourage more branching and more blooms. Blooms all summer until severe frost.
