Notes

'Lemon Mint' celosia (Celosia 'Lemon Mint') 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. Cut stems for bouquets all season.

Pairs well with Rip City dahlia, Laurentia, and Wild senna.
