Growing Instructions
- Sow early indoors / under cover with warmth 4-6 weeks prior to the last frost in individual pots or trays.
- Cover seed lightly fine soil.
- Keep soil moderately moist and warm during germination.
- Can be sown directly outdoors after danger of frost has passed through early summer.
- Thin or transplant to 30 cm apart when plants are 5 – 8 cm tall.
- Gradually acclimatise outside after all danger of frost has passed.
- Cosmos grows best in full sun in ordinary garden soil and may re-sow itself.
- Fairly drought resistant, water only when soil is dry for an extended period.
