Cosmos Apricot Lemonade seeds

Cosmos Apricot Lemonade seeds (Cosmos bipinnatus (Cosmos))

I’ve planted some cosmos seeds in a shallow pot I had spare. I’ll probably have to lift them and transplant them in the garden later. They were free in a magazine, which in these times is a gift, with the garden centres being closed.
Should be apricot and pink coloured flowers.

My cosmos seeds have been slow to germinate and I am not goi go to get as many as I had hoped for!
You look as if you have lots!!

That’s a pity, Chris..
To be honest, I’m not 100% sure what to do with them next!

A free pack of seeds would definitely get me reading. Good luck with the Cosmos. I did the same thing today with marigolds.

Well done Kate! I have the same seeds from Garden Answers . . . there are several spare packets that I post to friends. Even if they aren't keen gardeners, it's fun to find a handwritten envelope on the mat :)

Thanks Paul and Sheila. I hope my seeds do well..I’ve got loads now in pots, on the rockery, in a garden bed..I hope at least some of them actually bloom eventually.
Good luck with your marigolds!
Nice one Sheila, I miss the days of receiving handwritten letters and the like. I used to have pen pals all over the world. Those were the days.
