Annual growing to 100cm with ferny green foliage. The uniquely shaped flowers are cup-shaped with fused and pleated petals, scalloped on the edges, a small percentage with tufted centres. Flowers bloom in a range of pastel pinks through to white, some faintly striped. Expect a mix of single and semi-double flower shapes and colours, all in romantic pastel tones.
Great for beds, mass planting, meadows and cut flowers. Attracts butterflies to the garden. Easy to grow. Will self-seed freely. Tolerates poor soil and dry sunny positions. Also known as Cosmos 'Cupcakes and Saucers'.

Ratings & Reviews
Cosmos- Cupcakes Blush and White Mix
Absolutely gorgeous flowers. The whites are lovely and rounded, and the double petallled pinks are delicate. Germination was easy.
