Apricotta

Cosmos bipinnatus

Huge 3- 4" apricot coloured blooms with yellow eyes on 36" to 48" multi branched tall plants. So many flowers, in such an interesting colour, this cosmos became an instant favourite on the farm! Keep the plants dead-headed and well-pruned for the best results. Will likely need some support as the plants grow, but well worth the effort. 

Growing Instructions

Direct sow after last frost, and repeat every two weeks for extended blooms. Depth: ⅛” Spacing: 8-12”. Germination: 3-10 days. Grows to 4’, can benefit from staking. Full sun, well-drained soil, deadhead regularly. Readily self-seeds.
