Cosmos bipinnatus

Some plants you just can’t do without and Cosmos ‘Double Click Snow Puff’ is one of them!

Fluffy double and semi double blooms in white, invaluable for weddings and goes with everything else in the garden so you can always pull off a showstopper display!

How to grow:

One of the easiest annuals to start from seed and not too cold sensitive. Cosmos like moist but well drained conditions.

Sow one seed per cell in early Spring, into a 40 cell tray or sow 5 seeds to a 9cm pot. Cosmos are tolerant of ‘pricking out’.

Seeds will benefit from ‘a bit of warmth’ to germinate.

Plant 30cm apart after the last frost.

Cutting /Vase Life:

Pick as soon as flowers open but before pollinators reach them for the longest vase life. A true cut and come again flower. Deadhead regularly to maintain flowering.  We rest our stems for a few hours in water, this is called conditioning. Cosmos will continue to open and grow in the vase giving arrangements a magical feel.
