Notes

'China Town' celosia (Celosia 'China Town') is an annual for cut flowers, containers, and accents. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy or loamy soil. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. It blooms from early to late summer, and butterflies and bees visit the flowers.

Pairs well with Mammoth Grey Stripe sunflower, Lantana, and Hyacinth bean.
