No summer without cosmos.
If you're looking for a flower that blooms all summer long and is easy to care for and low-maintenance, you have to look at cosmos.
Soft colours that will give you endless joy, whether in your flower beds, in pots and in the vase.
Cosmos were awarded the title of "Bee-Friendly Plant 2021".
And because the decision is so difficult (I know it all too well!), I have put together six varieties for you. Do you prefer your colours a little bolder? Then maybe the mixture " Luminous Cosmos " is something for you?
These are the 6 varieties you get:
- Sweet kisses
- Candy Stripe
- Tetra Versailles Flush
- Double Dutch White
- Double Dutch Rose
- Cupcake White
