Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure success with your Thompson & Morgan Cosmos, begin by filling seed trays with a high-quality seed-starting compost. Lightly cover the seeds and keep the medium moist but not waterlogged. Once the plants reach a manageable size, transplant them outdoors into a location that receives full sun. Ensure the soil is well-draining. While these plants are hardy, they do not tolerate waterlogged soil well. Regular watering during dry spells and consistent deadheading of faded flowers are the primary care requirements for maintaining a healthy and productive display.
