How To Grow Orange Cosmos From Seed: Start seeds inside in pots or seedling modules from March onwards, or plant directly in the garden from late April.

Seedlings grown in pots can be planted out when they are about 5cm to 10cm tall, and all risk of frost has passed.

When Cosmos is flowering, remove the dead flower heads to promote it to grow more flowers and prolong its flowering period for as long as possible.

These seeds will produce orange to red flowers.
