Cosmos bipinnatus
Like pretty little muffin tins on a stick.
Just like her delicate blush-pink sister "Cupcake Blush", "Cupcake White" is a wonderful cut flower and an utter joy in any garden.
She's also happy in a pot and will flower all summer long.
Did you know that cosmos were awarded the title "Bee-friendly plant" in 2021?
