Blooming Period: May to November

Description:
The Seashells Cosmos, also known as Giant Cosmos, is an exquisite variety known for its striking and unique blooms that resemble the spiraled petals of seashells. With a random mix of vibrant colors, this annual plant will brighten up your garden with its long-lasting flowers from late spring through autumn. 🌞

Growing up to 80-120 cm (31-47 inches) tall, the plant has an upright structure but may need support to prevent it from toppling over due to its height. For the best growth, pruning the top leaves when the plant reaches 8 leaves will encourage branching, resulting in a fuller, more flower-packed plant. 🌿

This variety thrives in sunny conditions but can also tolerate partial shade. It enjoys a moderate watering routine, preferring to stay moist but never waterlogged. Be mindful of over-fertilizing, as it may lead to excessive growth and floppy stems. Instead, provide light feeding for healthy growth. 🌱

Growing Tips:

• Sunlight: Prefers full sun but can tolerate partial shade. 🌞
• Soil: Best suited for slightly acidic to alkaline soil (pH 6.0-8.5). It thrives in sandy, well-drained soils but can tolerate poor, nutrient-deficient soils. 🌱
• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but avoid standing water. 🌧️
• Temperature: Ideal germination temperature is 24°C (75°F). 🌡️
• Germination Time: Seeds take about 7-10 days to sprout.
• Flowering Time: Flowers typically bloom 60-90 days after planting. 🌼

Special Features:

• Vibrant and unique seashell-like flowers in a random mix of colors. 🌸
• Adds height and interest to garden beds, borders, and flower arrangements. 💐
• Easy to grow in both sunny and semi-shaded areas. 🌞
• Perfect for attracting pollinators such as bees and butterflies. 🐝🦋

Care Instructions:

• Prune early to promote fuller branching and more flowers. ✂️
• Ensure adequate support for taller plants to prevent wilting. 🌿
• Maintain moisture but avoid overwatering. 💧

Perfect for adding height, color, and texture to your garden, Seashells Cosmos will reward you with an abundance of beautiful flowers from late spring to autumn! 🌼
