Cosmo
Notes: An old favorite of home gardeners all over. Provides tall airy foliage and loads of cut flowers in white, pink and purple shades as well as bi-colour blooms. Very easy to grow and actually prefers sandy soils. Plant outside 6 mm deep in May and get flowers 8 weeks later right up until first frost. Great plant for a child's garden.


Instructions: Lightly cover. Germination 5 to 10 days.

Calendula - Very easy to grow in even poor soil. Extremely versatile. Also considered a herb. The leaves and petals can be used in salad.

These masses of single small blooms and lace like foliage are eye poppers for landscapes such as edging a garden path or filling for a bouquet or container planting. Tip: For use in baskets plant in groups of 3 or 4 for best results. Cosmo - This fabulous flower is an easy to grow mix of pink and white with its petals curled into a tube.
