Growing guide

From seed to harvest

Sow warm

Start 5–7 weeks ahead, or direct sow after frost once soil passes 60°F; cover lightly.

Pinch and space

Pinch young plants; space 9–12" apart, wider for sturdier stems.

Support tall types

Horizontal netting keeps tall cosmos upright in the wind.

Cut young blooms

Harvest as petals begin to open; keep cutting for flowers all summer.

Growing Information

Days to germination

Seedlings usually appear within a week to 10 days when kept at 68–72°F (20–22°C).

Transplanting

Start seed in 50-cell trays or similar, barely covered, about 5–7 weeks ahead of your planting-out date. Harden off and move outside once frost is over.

Direct sowing

Wait until frost is past and the soil has warmed past 60°F (16°C), then sow and just cover the seed.

Pinching

Pinch young plants to make them branch.

Light

Full sun.

Plant height

42–46".

Plant spacing

9–12". Giving plants more room produces thicker, sturdier stems.

Hardiness

Grown as an annual.

Harvest

Cut when the petals are just unfolding and before they lie flat. Keep cutting or deadheading to keep plants blooming all summer.

Soil

Not fussy; any reasonable soil will do.

Uses
