How to Plant Cosmos from Seed

When to Plant Seeds

  • Outdoors: Sow seeds after the last frost date when the soil has warmed.
  • Indoors: Start seeds 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost for earlier blooms.

Seed Preparation

  • No special seed treatment is needed.
  • For faster germination, soak seeds in water for a few hours before planting.

Sowing Seeds Outdoors

  1. Choose a well-drained, sunny location.
  2. Loosen the soil and remove any weeds.
  3. Scatter seeds directly on the soil surface and press them in gently.
  4. Lightly cover with a thin layer of soil (about ¼ inch deep).
  5. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.
  6. Germination occurs within 7-21 days.
  7. Thin seedlings to 12 inches apart once they develop true leaves.

Starting Seeds Indoors

  1. Fill seed trays with moist, well-draining seed-starting mix.
  2. Plant seeds ¼ inch deep and cover lightly with soil.
  3. Maintain temperatures of 65-75°F (18-24°C).
  4. Water gently and place trays in a bright location.
  5. Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost, spacing them 12-18 inches apart.

Pro Tip

Deadhead spent blooms to keep them flowering all season, or let some go to seed for self-sown blooms next year.

Bonus: They’re drought-tolerant and attract butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds!
