Outsidepride 1000 Seeds Annual Cosmos Sulphureus Red Garden Flower Seeds for Planting

Seed germination is quite high, I still only have 2 inch plants, but almost all the seeds I planted came up, good value!

they didn’t bloom hardly and the ones that did bloom did not look like this

I absolutely love cosmos, my mother always had orange/golden/lemonade cosmos in her garden and I wanted to plant these on my balcony so it reminds me of home. I already have those colours but wanted to try new ones so I bought this expecting a really stunning red to pop out but instead I got more orange flowers. Don't get me wrong, they're beautiful, have more petals than "normal" cosmos and a really nice colour grading from red to bright orange as you can see in the pictures. I'm guessing that's what they meant with "Sulphureous Red".Edit: The more sun they receive the reddish they get. I added a picture right next to a "normal" orange cosmos so you can compare the colour.You also get a lot of seeds and they grow really fast! Just give them a little water, a relatively acidic soil, full sun and in two days you have 4 cm sprouts. You can expect them to bloom in a month or so.Value for money is also great because you can grab the seeds from the flowers you like the most and store them or grow them whenever you want.

You get a lot of seeds and these are rather easy to grow. Plant in full sun and dont need a lot of water. They bloom in a month. BUT these are not red. Theyre a vivid orange. The last photo is 3 weeks later. Even though not red (the type of soil could cause the color outcome) they are an almost flouresnt orange and attract buterflies, bees and birds. Finches especially like the seeds (you can easily gather the seeds for next year)
