Cosmos bipinnatus 'Fizzy Pink'

Back to dull rainy day after a lovely day yesterday when the bumblies were enjoying the #cosmos #bumblebee #wildlifewednesday 🐝💕🐝

@gjones thank you 😊

Great bee photo 💕💕🐝

@midnightgardener thanks hun 💕

💞

@gjones I like my frilly ones 😄

Wow! Such a pretty Cosmos. I need to sow this next year. The Lemonade ones I did have grown tall with fuzzy foliage but no buds, I've never known a Cosmos so very very slooooowww 💕💕💕

@midnightgardener don't over water cosmos Chris or you end up with just loads of foliage I learnt that on here n left nature to take its course this year so never watered them n they have loads of buds on.😊

@Keely Thank you, I didn't know that. The thing is the Gazebo White Cosmos is doing ok. I've never known this before. I can say though and Ange @anges would agree, that they were really very slow, I've never known such pathetic scrappy seedlings. If they don't flower next week I just might take them out 🤔

#pink #grownfromseed 💞💛💞

That is so pretty 💕💕💛

@midnightgardener thanks Chris 😆

@gjones thank you so much 😄

Morning posting this one again as the first one came up blank screen, saved seeds from last year as I liked the frilly petals 💕 #grownfromseed #cosmos

A beauty!!! I struggle to get the seeds as its usually quite wet here. Hope you are well! X

Funny they are like weeds here in Los Angeles. I never paid attention to them before I joined GT. Now I have a whole new appreciation for them. Thanks for posting that. It’s gorgeous. 😊

Very pretty...well worth harvesting the seeds for👍👍👍

Morning Keely 🙋‍♂️ pretty in pink 💗

Morning Keely. That's so pretty ....definitely worth saving the seeds for 👋😮💖

That’s a cracker, Keely. 👏🏻

Like the frills 💗💗💗

@SylviaDavies its pretty similar here in Yorkshire Silvia I was chuffed I managed these they were shrivelled up in an envelope didn't manage to save loads but enough to do for this year. I'm doing good hope you are too 😄

@philstalder thanks Phil there are so many varieties out now with good support from winds they add lovely late colour to the border 💖💕

@belindah I'm not very good at collecting seeds so I'm chuffed with these as I only harvested two buds and they are true to form from last years too 💕

@drewneil thank you 😄

Afternoon Peeps. First day back at work today wasn't too bad be good to get back into a routine again after 3 weeks sick! 😬 loving this #cosmos has anyone ever tried collecting seeds from these plants and if so do they germinate? #cosmosseedadvise 💞

https://www.gardenersworld.com/how-to/grow-plants/how-to-collect-cosmos-seeds/ found this Keely 🌸🌸

@pelly awe that's fab Jane I will check out my bigger heads n save those once they go over Thank you I'm going to save this link for future too 😊

You’re welcome Keely, I think I’ll have a go too, although I only did Purity this year. If you get plenty would you be able to send me some of this one, it’s so beautiful? 🌸🌸

@pelly of course I can I have quite a lot of buds and saved this to my wishlist so I will remember happy to repay your recent lupins even though I had to start again I only blinking scorched them in bank holiday heat when I was out for day grrr have done more though as you sent plenty 😕😂😂

Thanks Keely. What a shame about the lupins, I have only managed to germinate three so far, but one seems to pop up every couple of weeks so I might get some more 😊😘
