Neo™ Orange Celosia

Neo™ Orange is the orange-flowered color of PanAmerican Seed’s upright Celosia cristata Neo series, grown for cut-flower stems and arrangements. Ball Seed identifies this exact selection as Celboorange and lists spring through late-summer flowering, full sun, heat tolerance, and a height range of 28 to 40 inches (about 2.3 to 3.3 feet) ([Ball Seed’s Neo Orange page](https://www.ballseed.com/PlantInfo/?phid=166302920003789)). Since the height range crosses 36 inches, the catalog display uses feet throughout; the thick crests and smaller leaves suit bouquets and other arrangements. ## Siting Plant in full sun with room for upright stems. Use it in a cutting row or a warm-season annual display where the orange crests can be seen clearly. ## Maintenance Maintain even moisture while the plant is growing and harvest stems as the crests approach fullness. Remove spent plants at the end of the season.
