Garden cosmos 'Apricotta' (Cosmos bipinnatus)

Garden cosmos ‘Apricotta’ (Cosmos bipinnatus) has a unique colour palette – apricot shade with a pink tint. The flowering period can be extended by regularly removing faded blooms. Cutting back about one-third of the plants once most flowers have finished will encourage fresh foliage and a new flush of blooms.

Cover the seeds with only a thin layer of soil, as they need light to germinate. Transplant outdoors only after the last frost. Spacing: 30 cm. Avoid overwatering – cosmos do not like excessively wet conditions.
