A profusion of double white blooms bedeck this new & froufrou Cosmos from Summer through Fall! Though they are a wee bit on the manufactured side for our tastes (oh the breeders, they do like to meddle) they certainly appeal to our fancy, floozy, frilly side. Parasols & petticoats? We say yes! ‘Snow Puff’ Cosmos? Also yes! Growing to 3-4’ tall & wide, this Cosmos makes a superb cut flower & blooms longest when deadheaded, so keep those bouquets coming! Like other Cosmos, ‘Snow Puff’ both reseeds & attracts pollinators & beneficial insects, so you do get function with your frills! Not fussy about soil, but a little compost added is best.
