Unit price perCosmos sulphureus
Bright Lights is a dazzling warm-toned cosmos mix producing masses of vivid flowers in shades of golden yellow, orange and fiery red-orange. The bright blooms are held above finely divided green foliage, creating a lively display through the warmer months.
Plants grow to approximately 80 cm tall and work beautifully through cottage gardens, borders, wildflower plantings and informal garden beds. The flowers are highly attractive to butterflies, bees and other beneficial insects and are also useful as cheerful cut flowers.
A hardy, heat-tolerant annual, Bright Lights thrives in sunny positions and is easy to grow across a wide range of well-drained soils. Avoid excessive fertiliser, which can encourage leafy growth at the expense of flowers, and deadhead regularly to prolong flowering.
Approximately 40 seeds per packet.
