She's like a mermaid glistening in the sun 🧜‍♀️💜🌞

Cosmos are such a simple looking flower, but for me one of the most stunning! One of my favourites! This one is gorgeous! Beautiful!

@jmlincoln the shimmer is really so pretty ✨

@kamaki thank you Andreas 😊 couldn’t agree more, simple is beautiful 💖

That’s pretty Kerry , mine are a long way off flowering 💗💛💗

It looks like it’s glowing 💖💖

Very pretty. None here yet but two types have been planted. I don't think the Lemonade Cosmos will do much at all, I've never seen such poor seedlings 💕💕

@lovemygarden65 Marilyn thank you Marilyn ☺️ I sowed these in March I think but flowered much earlier than I expected

@sabbanrula it really does and it’s so much better in low light. I’m a bit in love with this one 🤣

@midnightgardener thanks Christine 😁 I’ve done some Pink Lemonade too but they’ve not even germinated yet! Hopefully we will both get a late growth spurt 😂

Love the orange sheen on these little flowers 💗🧡💗 #cosmos #cosmea #cosmos-xsenia #grown-from-seed

Oh gorgeous Kerry....🌸 I luvum

Just shows what you can achieve from seed, beautiful Kerry. Its my first year at growing from seed both vegetables and flowers.. so looking forward to it.

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom they’re so sweet aren’t they 🥰 tiny too but hoping that’s just because they’re small plants still😂

@solly1961 thank you Mark ☺️ growing from seed is so much fun. I still get excited to see things flower for the first time 🤗 I’m glad you’re enjoying it so much and guarantee you’ll love it even more once things start producing and flowering 😁

Beautiful colours 💕

@suerichards thanks Sue ☺️ it looks even better when the sun isn’t shining. The orange glow is so lovely 🧡

That's a nice one never seen one with a hint of orange

@alan1111 thanks Alan 😀 think it’s a fairly new variety. Looks best when the sun goes down ✨

Keep us in mind come autumn 😉

@alan1111 of course 😛

Thanks Kerry 😊

So tiny 💗🧡💗 #cosmos #cosmea #cosmos-xsenia #grown-from-seed

Lovely colour how ever tiny it is 💖💖💖

Great to see them flowering this early 💗👍

#prettyinpink 😍😍😍

@pelly excited to see this one open. It’s supposed to be pink in the sunlight and then have an orange glow once the sun goes down 😋

@jeatacake these seem to be the only ones that are in bud. I’m having a nightmare with seeds this year though 😐 the last 30-ish lots I sowed a few weeks back haven’t germinated at all, except for one variety of sunflower 😓

@shaz831 thanks Shaz ☺️

That sounds interesting 💗🧡

How odd? I wonder why? Did you use your electric propogator? In my case when this happens, it's usually due to using old seeds 🤔

@jeatacake I didn’t as it’s warm in the greenhouse at the moment. There’s over 10 trays full and are all in date. Just not doing a thing 😐 very strange

It has been cold some nights & many seeds need consistent 24 hour warm temperatures to germinate 😔

@jeatacake that’s likely what I’ve done wrong 😜 I’ll leave them for a while now it’s warming up. If no joy I’ll have to chance a late may sowing extravaganza 🤣
