Description: To grow Sensation Tall Cosmos from seeds, follow these steps:Planting: Start by preparing the garden with loose, weed-free soil. Sensation Tall Cosmos prefer dry, arid soil over wet conditions to prevent disease. Ensure the soil is well-draining and add compost for nutrients. Avoid fertilizers high in nitrogen that can promote foliage growth over flower blooms.Light: Sensation Tall Cosmos thrive in full sun conditions but can tolerate partial shade in extreme heat.Spacing: Plant the seeds of Sensation Tall Cosmos according to their height. For taller varieties like Sensation Tall Cosmos, space them about 1-2 feet apart to allow room for growth.Watering: Initially, provide young plants with enough moisture to establish roots. Once mature, Sensation Tall Cosmos can adapt to drier conditions and prefer less frequent watering.Maintenance: Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming and prevent seed formation, which redirects the plant’s energy into producing more flowers.Staking: Stake taller varieties of Sensation Tall Cosmos to support their height and prevent breakage in windy conditions.Mulching: Apply mulch around the base of the plants in early spring to suppress weeds and retain moisture in the soil.Fertilizing: Avoid excessive fertilization as it can lead to rapid growth but fewer flowers. Consider adding compost or a balanced fertilizer mid-season if needed.End of Season Care: In colder climates where frost is expected, annual Sensation Tall Cosmos will naturally die back with freezing temperatures. Remove the plants from the ground and either compost them or leave them as habitat for insects.By following these growing instructions, you can cultivate beautiful Sensation Tall Cosmos from seeds and enjoy their vibrant blooms throughout the season.
