Cosmos Sowing Instructions
Planting Depth:1/2” Seed Spacing:1”-2” Plant Spacing:9”-24” Days to Germination: 5-10 days Germination Temperature:68°-85°F
Cosmos bipinnatus. A tremendous cut flower,
easy-to-grow Cosmos prefers to be direct-sown in
the garden after the last frost date. Plant them 1⁄2"
deep in well-draining soil with full sun. Keep
uniformly moist until the seedlings emerge, about
10 days after sowing.
If you must start Cosmos indoors, you may
plant them 1⁄2" deep in a good seed-starting
medium at 68° to 85°F about 5 to 7 weeks prior
to the last frost date. Provide even moisture,
strong light and good ventilation. Once
established, thin to the strongest seedlings.
Once 3" tall, transplant seedlings 9" to 24" apart
in the garden. Quite forgiving, mature Cosmos
plants will thrive in infertile or dry soil. Prized for
wildflower meadows, their delicate flowers and
feathery foliage belong in every heirloom garden.
Summer flowering.
