Annual

Height 24 to 36 in

Cosmos Gloria, also called Mexican Aster, Gloria Cosmos is a popular variety of garden Cosmos which can be sown outside in early spring or after last frost, and is one of the best flowers for xeriscaping. This Cosmos variety features attractive finely-cut foliage and blooms with extra large (4 in), bi-coloured, deep pink daisy-like flowers with a bright magenta halo around the pretty yellow centre. This variety blooms all summer long into the late fall.

Cosmos Gloria is also a great choice for mass plantings in meadows, along roadsides, walkways and any naturalized landscapes. Cosmos is great for window boxes and container planting. Cosmos is a low maintenance plant with brightly coloured flowers that attract hummingbirds, butterflies and bees, and resists heat and drought. Blooms from midsummer to the first frost. Excellent choice for cutting gardens and make fantastic long stemmed cut flowers. Great for borders, cottage style gardens and meadows.
