Cosmos Celebration in Pink Seed
Cosmos bipinnatus
LARGE PACKET
Annual. The cosmos flower is the symbol of order, peace and modesty. A romantic gift to offer, as it represents expression of the joys that love and life can bring. Fast growing and low maintenance cosmos rewards you with months of beautiful, daisy-like flowers in sparkling pinks that attract butterfl ies and hummingbirds. The ferny foliage appears delicate, but the plants thrive in sun, heat and dry conditions. Cosmos is perfect in the border as a backdrop for shorter plants, and is ideal for planting in groups or as part of a naturalized or wildflower garden. Excellent cut flower for bouquets and arrangements. Self-sows regularly for year after year of enjoyment. Deer resistant.
