Notes
'Avignon Lavender II' celosia (Celosia 'Avignon Lavender II') is an annual for cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and accents. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy or loamy soil. It blooms from early to late summer, and butterflies and bees visit the flowers. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Plant it where you can watch the visitors.
Pairs well with Profusion zinnia, Foxy Lady dahlia, and Wild senna.
