Cosmos Xsenia - West Coast Seeds
Cosmos bipinnatus & C. sulfureus
- Terracotta pink colour
- Long stems for cutting
- Easy-to-grow
This charming terracotta pink cosmo is a crowd pleaser. Xsenia produces an abundance of petite 6cm (2.5”) flowers, with stems long enough for cutting. The petals sit tightly together surrounding the bright yellow center. Fleuroselect Novelty 2018.
Most varieties can get quite tall, and in exposed or windy gardens can benefit from staking or trellis netting laid horizontally over the bed for the stems to grow through before blooming. Deadhead and cut for bouquets regularly to extend the bloom period.
Approx. 25 seeds
Timing: Direct sow after the last frost date. Several sowings will result in a very long bloom period. Cosmos can also be started indoors in late winter for transplanting after last frost, once daytime temperatures are above 10°C (50°F). Seeds will sprout in 3-10 days. Optimal temperature for germination: 21-25°C (70-75°F).
Starting: Sow seeds very shallowly only a few millimetres (1/8″) deep. Thin or transplant to 20-25cm (8-10″) apart.
