Notes

'Strawflowers' celosia (Celosia 'Strawflowers') 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 sits low on the menu for deer. It blooms from early to late summer, and butterflies and bees visit the flowers.

Pairs well with California Giants zinnia, Creeping zinnia, Cornel dahlia, and Chocolate daisy.
