Kosmo Salmon Celosia

Kosmo Salmon is a compact wheat celosia with upright stems, a central flower spike, and additional side spikes. Ball Seed lists this selection at about 8 inches tall and 8–10 inches wide, with flowers from late spring through summer and late summer. ## Form and season The [Ball Seed profile](https://info.ballseed.com/PlantInfo/?phid=014503064004844) identifies Kosmo Salmon as Celosia spicata, describes its upright habit and sun exposure, and recommends patio planters and gardens. The [PanAmerican Seed catalog](https://catalog.panamseed.com/view/445948364/154/) describes the dwarf growth and multi-spike form shared by Kosmo selections. ## Siting Use in a sunny container, patio planting, or seasonal bed where its compact scale fits. The breeder reports that Kosmo is genetically dwarf and needs no pinching or plant growth regulators. ## Maintenance Keep moisture steady while the plant is growing, allowing excess water to drain freely. Remove faded spikes for appearance; routine pinching is unnecessary for this series.
