Sowing Instructions

 

Sow seeds indoors from March to April or directly outdoors from late April to May. For indoor sowing, fill seed trays or pots with fine compost, sow seeds thinly on the surface, and lightly cover with compost. Maintain a temperature of 18-21°C and keep soil moist until germination.

 

Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots and harden them off before planting outdoors after the last frost. Space plants 30-40 cm apart in a sunny, sheltered location.

 

For outdoor sowing, scatter seeds in well-prepared soil, lightly rake, and water gently. Thin seedlings as needed to achieve proper spacing.

 

Cosmos Tetra Versailles Mix (Cosmos bipinnatus) adds a touch of elegance and colour to any garden, delighting with its beautiful blooms and creating a striking display throughout the summer.
