Product Description
Number of seeds: 10 ~ 15 per pack
Cockscomb is a variety of Celosia plant, known for its unique and showy flower heads that resemble the comb of a rooster or cock. The plant is also known by the common names woolflower or brain celosia, due to the velvety, brain-like appearance of its flowers.
Cockscomb plants produce large, dense flower heads that can be up to 6-8 inches across, and are typically bright shades of red, pink, or yellow. The flowers are arranged in upright, plume-like clusters that can be either flat-topped or rounded, depending on the variety.
When grown in the right conditions, Cockscomb plants can grow up to 1-3 feet in height and 1-2 feet in width. They prefer a warm, sunny location and well-draining soil.
Cockscomb seeds can be sown directly into the soil in the spring or summer. They require regular watering and may benefit from a balanced fertilizer every two weeks to promote healthy growth and flowering. Deadheading the spent flowers can also help to prolong the blooming period.
Overall, Cockscomb is a great choice for anyone looking to add some unique and vibrant texture to their garden or landscape. Its striking appearance and bright colors make it a popular choice for cut flower arrangements, as well as for adding interest to outdoor spaces. Additionally, the flowers can also attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies.
