Cosmos Cosmic Red is a compact variety of cosmos known for its vibrant red blooms with yellow centers. Unlike traditional cosmos that can grow quite tall, the Cosmic series typically stays around 12-18 inches in height, making it perfect for containers, borders, and smaller garden spaces. These annuals bloom profusely from summer until frost, attracting butterflies and other pollinators. They’re also excellent for cut flowers and are relatively drought-tolerant once established.
