If I could only grow one annual flower, it might just be cosmos. And, if I could just grow one cosmos, it’d probably be Apricotta. A Fleuroselect winner, this variety is beloved with its unique opalescent hues—a blend of light pink, peach, and lavender that shifts in the light. Unlike traditional pink blooms, the terracotta undertone gives it an earthy, sophisticated look rather than a pastel vibe. Few flowers offer such unique coloration. Adding to its charm, the finely serrated leaves enhance its delicate appearance. This prolific bloomer is a pollinator magnet, attracting bees and butterflies throughout its long bloom period. Low maintenance and tolerant of low water conditions, it thrives in full sun and can handle partial shade. Like all cosmos, keep dead-heading for continuous blooms. Great for beginning gardeners.
