Cosmos 'Daydream' Cut Flower Seeds

Overview

Cosmos 'Daydream' has lovely dainty flowers that are rose pink in the centre fading to the palest pink at its outer edges.

Cosmos 'Daydream' is an easy to grow half-hardy annual that produces flowers over a very long period from July to the first frost in October. They grow to about 90cm so may need a bit of staking.

An excellent flower for cutting as well as beautiful in the garden - it looks lovely when sown in swathes through a border. Loved by bees & butterflies too!
