Choice Cosmos - bipinnatus -"Sensation Mix"

Plants have tall, graceful foliage, not unlike an asparagus fern. Blossoms are 2-3 inches wide and appear in white, pink, and crimson. Flowers are super for cutting and grow 3-5 feet tall! Some Sea Shell, Sweet Dreams, Psyche, and Picotee mixed with Sensation to enhance the display of blooms. Better not wait to collect the seeds! The birds love them and will have every one of them if you're not quicker than they are!  $2.50/pack for 100+ seeds.

 

• Annual
• Likes full sun (6 hours) to part shade
• Tolerates heat and drought better than many annuals
• Blooms profusely late in the season, shorter daylight triggers this profusion of blooms in late August in Michigan
• 100 seeds per pack

Choice Cosmos, also known as "Sensation Mix", in pink, crimson, and white.  This year's mix includes "Seashell" (trumpet-shaped petals) and "Picotee" (white edged with pink, and if many stripes, called "Candystripe"), "Psycho" (white with jagged edged  petals), "Daydream" (white with pink centers), and Tetra Versailles crimson red cosmos.  OUTSTANDING! Cosmos is always a pleaser.  And it blooms well into November in Michigan if the weather doesn't turn wild early!
