Cosmos Asteraceae
FLOWER-COSMOS-BICOLOUR MIX This typical cosmos stands out with its large, two-toned daisies of white to pale pink edged in rich raspberry red. Grows fast from seed. The tall, many-branched stems are lined with feathery, very finely divided, and light to medium green foliage. An abundance of large, bowl-shaped daisies top the stems throughout the summer. Cosmos are heat-loving plants which grow best in full sun and moist to somewhat dry, well-drained soil of average fertility. Remove faded blossoms regularly for best flowering and performance.

Sow thinly 5mm deep in growing position or in punnets or seed boxes of moist seed compost, or plant directly in the garden.

More About Us

ABSeeds is an Australian owned business trading under the umbrella of Direct Compost Solutions which is owned and managed by Victoria Brun.

We as a company endeavor to provide to the public, Organic, Old Fashioned, Heritage, and Open-pollinated seeds that have not been genetically modified.

We purchased the business in November 2018 and renamed it to ABSeeds (All ‘Bout Seeds) to make the title shorter and represent what we hope to achieve with this business in the years ahead.

Seeds that we can’t grow ourselves we will acquire from people who grow for us, or we may purchase seeds from reputable heritage seed companies.
