Cosmos Flower Seeds

Our Cosmos Flower seeds got its name from the Greek word 'kosmos', which simply means "beautiful", and that they are! A native of Mexico originally, Cosmos took a circuitous route back to the U.S. by way of the Spanish explorers and then England. A member of the Aster family, when it finally made its way to North America, indirectly through Spain and England, and more directly through Mexico, for some reason it was never given a common name, as many species of shrubs, trees and flowers are. Some may refer to them as Mexican Asters, though the more commonly used name is still "Cosmos". Cosmos flowers are grown for their bright colors, their silky, daisy-like blossoms, their low-maintenance requirements and their longevity once cut.


Cosmos, pronounced KOZ-mose, is inexpensive and easy to grow from seeds; you can sow them directly into the garden or start them indoors and then transplant them. Quite drought tolerant once established, they will produce larger and more prolific blooms if watered regularly and are highly adaptable to just about any type of soil you might have. Light sensitive, Cosmos will bloom their best during late summer as the days start to grow shorter, though they love the heat. Plant them in the sun and out of high winds and either cut the blossoms for your vases or pinch the spent blooms to encourage continuous blooms. In warm climes, Cosmos will self-sow if not deadheaded. Cosmos is not a heavy feeder, but will benefit from an occasional dose, once well established, of Espoma-Flower-tone®or Jungle Flora, both of which are organically rich and safe for you, your pets, your children and the environment.


Each order of our fresh Cosmos seeds is filled by hand, put into a resealable plastic bag and then placed into a labeled seed packet. It is our goal to provide our customers the best in freshness and quality.
