Terra Cotta Celosia will provide armloads of spiked flowers through the summer. Celosia spicata is an annual flower that grows best in sunny gardens. The colors of the flower spikes ranges from copper, bronze to rose gold. The plants can grow 3 or 4 feet tall with multiple side branches full of 2-4 inch flower spikes. Its always a good idea to pinch out the growing tips of celosia to form a bushier plant when several inches tall.
Celosia is a warm season annual and should be planted out after all danger of frost. Each seed order comes packed in a simple kraft paper envelope with detailed growing instructions. Each seed packet contains a minimum of 50 seeds. The seeds are very tiny so I include a few extras. Seeds are cleaned by hand and small bits of chaff may be present.
