Notes

'Flowers are fully open but still' celosia (Celosia 'Flowers are fully open but still') is an annual for cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and accent planting. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy or loamy soil. It blooms from early to late summer. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers.

Pairs well with California Giants zinnia, Flowering tobacco, and Polka dahlia.
