Notes

'Candyfloss Red Cosmos' (Cosmos bipinnatus 'Candyfloss Red Cosmos') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full or part sun. It grows about 24 inches tall, so it fits well at the middle of a border or in a large pot. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers, which makes it a good pick for a lively summer garden.

Pairs well with Lemon Queen sunflower, Gaura, and Ornamental onion.
