Description
Xanthos is a charming variety of cosmos with beautiful, bright, lemon-yellow petals.

At the very center, the flower has a beautiful white ring that embraces the yellow disc.

The foliage is delicately feather-like, and the variety blooms abundantly until the frost arrives. A warm and charming variety of cosmos that has become very popular due to its unique color.

It's wonderful in borders and plantings, but just as beautiful in a pot.

A magical cut flower that lasts a long time in a vase and adds that extra touch to summer bouquets.

There are few yellow summer flowers that are as beautiful as Xanthos, and a plus is that it's incredibly easy to grow!

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.
