Discover the captivating beauty of Cosmos bipinnatus 'Xanthos'. This extraordinary cosmos variety boasts stunning soft-yellow blooms that create a striking visual impact in any garden setting. Unlike traditional cosmos, 'Xanthos' is compact and dwarf, making it perfect for patio containers, small beds, or borders. Its early flowering nature means you'll enjoy vibrant blooms in as little as 70 days after sowing, with continuous flowering lasting up to six months—from spring to fall. These resilient plants are ideal for exposed gardens where taller varieties might struggle against the wind. The elegant yellow flowers can be used en masse for a sophisticated display or combined with other annuals to complement various colour schemes. They also make excellent underplanting’s for shrubs and hedging, adding a touch of brightness and charm to your landscape.
