Cosmos - Xanthos

Cosmos bipinnatus

Xanthos is a charming variety of cosmos with beautiful, bright, lemon-yellow petals. At the very center, the flower has a beautiful white ring that embraces the yellow disc. The foliage is delicately feather-like, and the variety blooms abundantly until the frost arrives.

A warm and charming variety of cosmos that has become very popular due to its unique color. It’s wonderful in borders and plantings, but just as beautiful in a pot. A magical cut flower that lasts a long time in a vase and adds that extra touch to summer bouquets. There are few yellow summer flowers that are as beautiful as Xanthos, and a plus is that it’s incredibly easy to grow!
