Soft as a sunset and sweet as a summer breeze, Apricotta Cosmos brings a wash of romantic color to any garden. These cottage garden favorites bloom in a warm, watercolor blend of apricot, blush pink, and soft rose, with golden centers that glow in the light. Each flower feels like a hand-painted masterpiece—delicate, airy, and effortlessly elegant.
Apricotta grows on tall, willowy stems reaching 3 to 4 feet high, with feathery green foliage that adds lightness and movement to garden beds. A favorite for bouquets and floral design, these cosmos offer long, sturdy stems and a graceful presence in arrangements, whether fresh or dried. In the garden, they draw in bees and butterflies, swaying gently in the breeze and blooming nonstop from midsummer until frost.
Like all cosmos, Apricotta is incredibly easy to grow from seed, thriving in full sun and lean, well-drained soil. These low-maintenance bloomers actually perform better in less fertile conditions, producing more flowers and fewer leaves. Drought-tolerant once established, they’re ideal for pollinator gardens, cutting beds, and anyone looking to fill a space with color, softness, and a little garden romance.
Whether planted en masse or woven through borders, Apricotta Cosmos is the definition of dreamy—turning any corner of your garden into a pastel-hued love letter to summer.
