Growing Duration: Cosmos Sulphureus is an annual plant that blooms profusely from mid-summer until the first frost. Plants will begin to flower approximately 60 to 90 days after sowing.
Special Features: Cosmos Sulph ureus is known for its hardiness and ease of cultivation. Its vibrant flowers attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, making this plant an excellent choice for organic and natural gardens.
Lighting: Prefers full sun for optimal growth and abundant flowering. Make sure plants receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day.
Watering: Although Cosmos Sulphureus is fairly drought tolerant, it prefers regular watering during dry periods. Keep the soil slightly moist, but well drained, and avoid overwatering as the roots may rot.
Pests: Cosmos Sulphureus is generally resistant to pests, but can occasionally be affected by aphids and spider mites. The use of environmentally friendly products, such as potassium soap and Neem oil, is recommended to keep pests under control.
Cold hardiness: Although Cosmos Sulphureus is heat resistant, it does not tolerate frost well. Sowing is recommended after the risk of frost has passed in spring.
Substrate: A well-drained and slightly fertile substrate is recommended. Cosmos Sulphureus can grow in poor soils, making it a very adaptable and easy to grow plant.
Harvesting: To enjoy fresh flowers and promote continuous blooming, cut off mature flowers regularly. This will also prevent the plant from expending energy on seed production.
