Bright Sparks™ Burgundy Celosia

Bright Sparks™ Burgundy Celosia is an upright annual with rich burgundy plume-shaped flowers and a compact, branching habit. Syngenta lists it as a sun-loving Bright Sparks selection with repeat flowering and plumes that hold color well in warm-climate landscapes. ### Garden Use Use burgundy plumes as a dark accent in sunny seasonal borders, massed beds, or a patio container. The strong color pairs well with silver or lime foliage and pale flowers, while the upright form adds a vertical note without taking much space. The [Syngenta profile for Bright Sparks Burgundy, code 70092247](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/emea/product/flower/70092247) confirms the exact series, color selection, and product code. ### Growing Conditions Plant after frost in full sun and well-drained soil. Celosia is a heat-loving annual, so steady warmth supports flowering; water young plants regularly, then avoid saturated soil once established. Syngenta gives Bright Sparks a typical garden height of 35–45 cm and width of 25–30 cm, and describes large plumes on well-branched plants. Size varies with climate, spacing, and growing conditions. ### Seasonal Interest The series begins flowering in late spring and continues through summer, with secondary flowering that follows the initial display. Its rich burgundy color is most visible in bright light. ## Maintenance Water container-grown plants when the mix begins to dry and keep the bed free of competing weeds during establishment. Remove damaged stems if needed. Treat this celosia as a seasonal annual and clear it after frost.
