Cosmos - Bright Lights Blend
The Cosmos Bright Lights Blend, 'Cosmos sulphureus', displays an absolutely magnificent blend of yellow, gold, and scarlet flowers. The Bright Lights Blend are "landing lights" for butterflies. Bright Lights has very vibrant, bright, bold colors compared to other Cosmos. The 2 to 3 inch flowers adorn the 3 foot semi-dwarf plant. Cosmos begin blooming 10 weeks after seeding and bloom from summer to first fall frost. They like the shorter days of fall and will often bloom even stronger than they do in the summer. The Bright Lights Blend Cosmos prefer full sun but they can withstand a little shade. They will thrive in average garden soils. Do not over fertilize or over water. Plant this Cosmos in the spring after the last average frost date. They are excellent colorful bedding plants for low maintenance, dry areas and are great for cut flowers. They attract hummingbirds and butterflies. ... more info
Bean Pole - Snap - Kentucky Blue The Kentucky Blue, like most pole beans, produces all season and is earlier than most pole beans. Snap beans used to be called string beans, but most varieties today are stringless. Plant after the last average frost date. Pole beans, in very warm climates, can be planted in late August for fall harvest. Kentucky Blue beans prefer rich, organic, well drained, warm soils. |
