5 popular hybrid varieties of annual Cosmos bipinnatus:
No flower is easier to grow from seed, and no flower lights up mid-summer and fall like cosmos. In fact, when all your other flowers are fading, your cosmos just keep on blooming, right up until frost. It means non-stop color in the garden, and non-stop flowers for cutting.
This new mixture gives you a never-before possibility of planting a patch or a whole acre of cosmos color that won't grow over 5 feet tall. And what colors you'll have! Everything from pure white to pure pink to pure red, plus the popular new bi-colors in between. Plant this mix, and stand back for a huge blaze of bloom!
