Notes
'Toreador' celosia (Celosia 'Toreador') is an annual for cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and accents. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. 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. Deer rarely make it their first choice. You can cut stems for fresh bouquets.
Pairs well with Profusion zinnia, Foxy Lady dahlia, and Snail vine.
