Grow Candystripe Cosmos from fresh Cosmos bipinnatus flower seeds. Candystripe produces beautifully painted petals. They range in colors of white and are accented by shades of violet and crimson markings. The plants themselves mature to a height of 36 to 60 inches tall. The leaves & stems of Candystripe Cosmos are slender and the flowers are attractive to all sorts of beneficial insects such as butterflies, hummingbirds, bumblebees & lady bugs. Cosmos are grown as an annual flowering plant, which means the plants will grow quickly, bloom heavily and then later die with the first killing frost. Cosmos flowers are best established in masses, in open fields, borders and flower beds and in random areas that need a splash of color. Most Cosmos flowers grow to a height of at least 30 inches or taller, so you may consider using them as a background / backdrop plant. Cosmos flowers in general come in a variety of different colors including pink, purple, crimson, yellow, orange, white, red and will even produce a few bi-colored blooms as well.
