Mr Fothergill’s 15316 Cosmos Double Click Cranberries, Purple
£4.58
Description
Sow indoors, for surest results, 0.5cm (¼in) deep, in trays of compost. Water well and place in a warm position, a temperature of 15-20°C (60-68°F) is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Transplant seedlings 5cm (2in) apart to other trays when large enough to handle. (Always handle by a leaf, never by the stem.) Grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 30cm (1ft) apart, when frosts are over. Or sow outdoors for ease, where they are to flower, 1.5cm (½in) deep into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Thin seedlings to 30cm (1ft) apart. Water well until plants are established.

Emma –
So after weeks and weeks of waiting my flowers came out, the colour seems to be correct. When the flower it’s self came out it was not what it looks like on the packet, and just seemed like a regular cosmos flour. Disappointing to say the least
That Country Mama –
I sowed some when I received this and nothing has come up so I’m resowing to see if they will this time… it’s warm enough so I know it’s not the temperature and al the other cosmos I have germinated not sure what wrong here…UPDATE:Sowed some more and 90% germinated. The seeds before just wasn’t great I suppose
Robbie –

Bev –
