Description
Large, open buttercup-like flowers of carmine pink with delicate, feathery foliage. Beautiful, tall and airy.
Cosmos last 10 days in the vase, produce at least two buckets of cut flowers a week from a 1 x 1m patch, and do so from late June until November. So that’s nearly 50 buckets of flowers in one season from a small patch. They are impossible to beat.
