Sow Tango Cosmos seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date, or start indoors 4-6 weeks before transplanting.

These plants thrive in full sun and well-drained soil; avoid over-fertilizing, as rich soil can promote foliage at the expense of blooms. Water regularly during dry spells, but allow soil to dry slightly between waterings. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming.
