Scatter seeds over prepared soil and lightly cover with 1\/4 inch of soil, then keep evenly moist until germination, which typically occurs in 7-21 days at 70-75°F. Once seedlings are a few inches tall, thin them to stand 12-18 inches apart to allow good air circulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese cosmos are relatively carefree once established. Water moderately during dry spells, but avoid overwatering as they prefer well-drained soil. Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continued blooming, or leave some seed heads to self-sow for next year. Taller plants may benefit from staking in windy areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e200 Sulphur Orange Cosmos seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67776221348150,"sku":"FOLIA-422","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7314673935_1glg.jpg?v=1792468400","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/200-sulphur-orange-cosmos-seeds-for-planting-vibrant-pollinator-garden-flowers","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
