Notes

'Persimmon 1990' celosia (Celosia 'Persimmon 1990') is an annual for cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and accents. 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, so you can cut stems for bouquets all season. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers. Deer tend to pass it by.

Pairs well with Purple Prince zinnia, Black Oil sunflower, and Blanket flower.
