Description
The Cosmos sulphureus Ladybird Mixed is a variety of dwarf Cosmos with semi-double flowers. It is offered in a mixture of colors ranging from scarlet red to yellow and orange. Its flowering period is very long, making it perfect for country gardens and for making wildflower bouquets.
The Ladybird Mixed variety has a small habit, reaching a height of 40 cm (15.7 in) and spreading over 40 cm (15.7 in). It is well-suited for small gardens, borders, and container cultivation.
This Cosmos is very interesting for decorating the surroundings of the house or adding a touch of warmth to a flower bed. You can combine it with other annuals, such as Coreopsis Be Bop or the Cherry Glow Poppy, or with the Prairie Fire Orange Sedge for a vibrant atmosphere.
Native to South America and belonging to the asteraceae family, the Cosmos sulphureus or Sulphur Cosmos is an annual plant with rapid growth that can reach 1.5 meters in its natural habitat. It has a branched habit and finely cut foliage (although slightly less than Cosmos bipinnatus), with light green color, and displays an tireless flowering from June to the first frost.
The Ladybird Sulphur Cosmos is easy to cultivate. Its flowering is resilient to poor soil, heat, and humidity. Give it plenty of sunlight, and it will bloom no matter what.
It is a particularly attractive plant for bees, and if you refrain from doing a major autumn cleanup, you will likely have the chance to admire birds (especially goldfinches) come to peck at the last seeds.

Planting and care
Sow Cosmos seeds from March to May, at a depth of 3mm (0.1 in), in fine compost and cover the seeds with a very light sprinkle of vermiculite. Place the seed tray in a mini-greenhouse at a temperature of 18-25°C or wrap it in a polyethylene bag. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.
Light promotes germination, which occurs 7 to 15 days after sowing. When the seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots with a diameter of 7cm (2.8 in).
Grow them in cooler conditions until the plants are sufficiently developed to be planted outdoors. When all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatize the plants to outdoor conditions for 7 to 10 days.
Plant them in full sun, in moist, well-drained soil, spaced 45cm (17.7 in) apart. Pinch out the tips of the shoots on each stem, during transplantation, to encourage branching and the production of numerous flowers.
Cosmos prefer soil with a pH between 6 and 8.5, corresponding to the soil of their original habitat, the alkaline regions of Central America. They prefer full sun but tolerate partial shade. These plants are drought-tolerant once established, they are not very susceptible to diseases but can be targeted by aphids. Spontaneous seedlings are common but not always true to type, without becoming invasive.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
