Planting and Growing Instructions

Soil Preparation:
Cosmos thrives in well-drained soil. For best results, amend the soil with organic compost to provide essential nutrients. These flowers prefer slightly acidic to neutral soil with a pH of 6.0-7.0.

Planting:
Sow seeds directly outdoors after the last frost. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep and space them 12-18 inches apart to allow room for growth and airflow. Choose a sunny location for optimal blooming.

Watering:
Water the plants moderately, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Cosmos is drought-tolerant once established but appreciates consistent moisture during its early growth stages.

Light and Temperature:
These sun-loving flowers thrive in full sunlight and require at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. They grow best in temperatures ranging from 65-85°F (18-29°C).

Pruning and Maintenance:
Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming throughout the season. This will also help maintain the plant's appearance and promote healthy growth.

Harvesting for Cut Flowers:
Cut the flowers early in the morning or late in the evening for the freshest blooms. Place them in water immediately after cutting to extend their vase life.
