200 Purity Cosmos Flower Seeds - White Cosmos Bipinnatus for Planting
Purity Cosmos is a beloved annual wildflower prized for its pure white, daisy-like blooms that rise above fine, feathery green foliage. Each flower features broad white petals surrounding a small yellow center, creating a soft, airy look that blends beautifully into cottage gardens, meadow plantings, and cut flower borders. Cosmos bipinnatus is easy to grow from seed and rewards gardeners with a long season of blooms that attract pollinators and beneficial insects.
These white cosmos flowers are a favorite for fresh bouquets and naturalized wildflower areas. Their delicate appearance belies their toughness, as the plants tolerate poor soil and dry spells once established.

Planting & Care
Sow Purity Cosmos seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date, or start them indoors a few weeks earlier for a head start. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface and keep them moist until germination, as light aids sprouting. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing once they are a few inches tall so plants have room to branch and bloom freely.
Cosmos performs best in full sun and lean, well-drained soil; overly rich soil can encourage foliage at the expense of flowers. Water young plants regularly during establishment, then reduce watering as plants mature. Deadheading spent blooms encourages continued flowering through the season. Tall stems may benefit from light staking in windy locations.
