Notes
'Double Click Cranberries' cosmos (Cosmos bipinnatus 'Double Click Cranberries') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and cottage gardens. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist soil of most types. It grows fast into a clumping plant that reaches 35 to 47 inches tall. Butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the blooms. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Purple top, Silver feather grass, and Ageratum.
