Apricotta Cosmos are so fun. Fluttery, crepe cups of both fuscia and bubblegum pink - so summery and full of energy - that color combo genuinely makes us giddy. How can you not have these in your garden? You can't. You have to have them. Glad we had this talk.

Cosmos are agreeable little guys; sweet little bursts of color, bobbing on wispy stems with lacy leaves. They love the sun and heat, don't mind when you forget to water them, and push up new flowers every darn day. Wild, bushy growers, their moniker stands for the order and harmony of the universe, but we love their wild, care-free ways.

Includes 100 seeds
