You receive 12 plants, each in its own 10.5cm pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a compact, dwarf celosia (Celosia argentea) that makes a bushy, upright plant topped with soft plumes from June to October. The leaves are mid-green and lance-shaped. The plumes also make good cut flowers. Colours are mixed and the exact balance will vary from pack to pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCelosia is tender, so plant it out once nights are reliably warm. Give it a sunny spot sheltered from strong winds and heavy rain, which can batter the plumes. It grows well in borders, raised beds, window boxes and patio containers, in well-drained, fertile soil or good multipurpose compost.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater regularly in dry spells without letting the roots sit in water, and feed every two weeks with a balanced liquid fertiliser to keep the flowers coming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cockscomb, Plumed Celosia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Celosia argentea Plumosa Group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height and Spread:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 20-30cm tall and 15-20cm wide (variety dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compact, upright, bushy annual with feathery plume-like flower spikes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Borders, containers, window boxes, raised beds and patio displays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-green, lance-shaped leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e June to October\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mixed: red, orange, yellow, pink and purple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun, sheltered from strong winds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained, fertile soil or quality multipurpose compost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not hardy.
