Daydream Cosmos: Ethereal Blooms for a Tranquil Garden Aesthetic

Daydream Cosmos is a graceful and enchanting variety, admired for its soft, pastel blooms that evoke a sense of serenity and romance. Reaching up to 4 feet in height, this annual cosmos features slender stems and feathery green foliage, providing a delicate backdrop that enhances the beauty of its flowers. Each bloom displays a dreamy gradient of soft pink fading to white at the edges, creating an ethereal, watercolor-like effect.

Ideal for borders, wildflower gardens, or fresh-cut arrangements, Daydream Cosmos attracts a variety of pollinators, including bees and butterflies. With its prolific, mid-to-late season blooms, it brings a continuous display of color from summer through fall, making it a stunning choice for any tranquil garden setting.

Direct sow seeds after the last frost or start indoors 4-6 weeks before transplanting outside. Regular deadheading encourages extended blooming. With its soft, romantic color palette, Daydream Cosmos adds a touch of dreaminess to any landscape.
