Blush Cupcakes Cosmos is a knockout! This was my first season to grow this variety and it did not disappoint. Delicate pink blooms with central petals give the blooms the appearance of cupcake wrappers. Some of the plants produced single blooms so not all will have the extra layer of petals. Each plant produces buckets of flowers for cut flower arrangements. I harvested a lot of blooms and still had plenty in the field for the butterflies and bees to enjoy. Each packet contains a minimum of 25 seeds. Cupcakes Blush Cosmos can be grown as an annual in zones 3-10. Once the plants are established they are extremely drought tolerant. Deer don't seem to bother Cosmos. The flowers are attractive to many of the smaller skipper type butterflies. Annual cosmos is also great to bring pollinators of all types into the garden. All seeds come packaged in a simple kraft paper envelope. Each order comes with complete seed starting and growing instructions.
Walking through sprawling fields of blooming flowers is the perfect way to celebrate Spring. I had been looking forward to visiting these fields for months and it was such a gorgeous day when we arrived. The fields are located in Carlsbad in Southern California, about 40 miles north of San Diego.
