Growing tips :
Cosmos are not frost-hardy and should not be planted outdoors until after the Ice Saints in mid-May. The young plants can be acclimated to outdoor temperatures during the day from mid-April onwards, thus hardening them off. It is important to cover the seeds only lightly with soil and keep them evenly moist. Once they reach a height of 20-30 cm, they can be pinched, meaning the main stem is shortened. This encourages the plant to branch out better, the stems to become longer, and the plant will produce a sea of ​​flowers in the summer.
