Gardener’s Tip
Sow directly outdoors or start indoors in spring in well-drained soil in a sunny position. Cosmea prefers lighter soils and does not need heavy feeding, as overly rich soil can lead to more foliage than flowers.
Deadhead regularly to encourage more blooms throughout the season. Allow some flowers to go to seed at the end of the season for natural self-seeding the following year.
