Description
Beautiful, simple and deep clear pink flowers with a terracotta orange hue that looks like it has been painted on with the softest of paint brushes.

The foliage on the variety is green and beautifully delicate.

When the sun shines, the flowers appear clear pink and in the evenings the flowers slowly change color to a slightly more terracotta orange.

A chic color combination that livens up any bed and planting. Xsenia is a fantastic cosmos that is excellent for cutting and lasts a long time in a vase.

With its admirable color and shape, the variety gives summer bouquets that little extra.

Loved by both people and all pollinators, Xsenia has become a snapdragon variety that is hard to be without!"

Care and cultivation advice

Pre-sow indoors in seed soil during March-April, preferably cover the sowing with transparent cover with air holes. When the seeds have sprouted, the sowing should be kept cool and as bright as possible for best results. To get many fabulous flowers, the Rose Campion plants need to be topped. This is done to stimulate the plant to produce more lateral shoots, which means more buds and flowers. A tip from us is to top/cut it just above the second or third pair of leaves.

The plants are transplanted when they have been hardened off properly and the risk of frost has passed. Choose a sunny location, as this is when it blooms the most, but the variety can also grow in semi-shade. Rose Campion thrives best in rich, sandy soil with not too much nutrients. If it gets too much nutrition, it will develop a lot of foliage but unfortunately very few flowers.

(The variety can also be sown directly on the planting site when the soil has warmed up and can be used, but then it will have a slightly later bloom.)

Can also be sown in the fall for bloom the following year. Sow directly in the soil before the frost comes.
