Cosmos Apricot Lemonade is as refreshing as a cold drink on a hot summer’s day. The dovetailed, peachy outer petals draw your eyes inward, past a ring of mauve and into the yellow center–you can imagine how this beauty seduces native pollinators with ease! One of the first cosmos to flower, this cultivar reaches about two feet tall when fully mature. Eden Brothers’ Cosmos Apricot Lemonade is lovely in the field, but if you can bear to cut a few stems, makes for a stunning arrangement in the vase.
