Plant Description
We all adore Cosmos here at the nursery, and the pink variety really is a
showstopper. Its soft, cheerful colour brings instant joy to any garden, container, pot,
or balcony display. With ruffled, daisy-like blooms perched on elegant, wiry stems,
Cosmos creates a romantic and truly summery feel that’s hard to beat.
The ‘Apollo’ variety is more compact than many others, making it perfect for smaller
spaces while still delivering an impressive number of blooms. With regular
deadheading, they’ll start flowering in early summer and can continue right through
to the first frosts, giving you months of vibrant colour.
Cosmos thrive in full sunshine and, once established, are wonderfully low-
maintenance. They prefer well-drained soil and don’t ask for much—just a little love
and a sunny spot. The open, accessible shape of their flowers makes them a
favourite with pollinators too, offering an easy landing pad for both honeybees and
bumblebees.
All in all, pink Cosmos ‘Apollo’ is a reliable and radiant choice for your summer
garden—a true all-round winner.
