💗Cosmos Grow and Care Instructions💗

Soil

Any sunny site with good drainage.

Position

Full sun to partial afternoon shade.

Frost tolerant

Seedlings tolerate light frosts, but plants are killed by freezing temperatures.

Feeding

Mix a light application of a balanced organic fertilizer into the soil prior to planting.

Companions

Tall varieties can form a colorful hedge that attracts bees and other pollinators, and mix well with tall herbs like dill and fennel.

Spacing

Single Plants: 7" (20cm) each way (minimum)
Rows: 7" (20cm) with 7" (20cm) row gap (minimum)

Sow and Plant

Sow cosmos in early spring so the plants can become established before hot weather comes. Cosmos also can be started indoors in containers and set out when the seedlings have at least five leaves, or purchased as bedding plants. Plant seeds in prepared soil about 2 inches (5 cm) apart and one-half inch (1 cm) deep. Thin to 8 inches (20 cm) apart in all directions for dwarf varieties; allow 12 inches (30 cm) between very tall varieties.
Our Garden Planner can produce a personalized calendar of when to sow, plant and harvest for your area.

Notes

Varieties vary greatly in height, color and flower form. Choose dwarf varieties for tight spaces. Sulphur cosmos (C. sulphureus) thrives in humid heat.

Harvesting

Cosmos make good cut flowers. Pull up the plants and compost them when blooms become few or freezing weather is expected.

Troubleshooting

In some climates, cosmos planted in spring may not come into full bloom until days become short in early autumn.

Planting and Harvesting Calendar

Want to find out when you can plant this in your garden? We use historical data from your local weather station to calculate the best range of planting dates for your location.

• In order to prolong flowering, you should deadhead the plants (prune off dead/faded flowers). This speeds up flower development and aids branching.
• Because some of these plants can grow really tall, staking may be necessary. Offer them protection from strong winds, encourage balanced branching by pinching out (aka pruning) central shoots or stem tips, or stake them. Growing them against a fence can also provide the necessary support.
• Water regularly until plants are established or if it is unusually dry. Make sure you don’t over-water cosmos; over-watering and over-fertilization can lead to plants with fewer flowers. Cosmos can tolerate dry soil, even in a hot, arid, sunbaked spot.
• Cosmos beds may become weedy due to the fact that they self-seed, so remember to remove flowers before they go to seed or to thin seedlings in the spring.
