Celosia Rainbow Sherbet Mix





Product Description
Celosia Rainbow Sherbet Mix
Celosia plumosa
While this exquisite celosia is on the shorter side, what it lacks in height it makes up for in color. Thick plumes are the shape of Romanesco broccoli in a range of sherbet tones including smoky raspberry, gold, apricot, and peach. The blooms have an iridescent quality and remind us of crushed velvet.

How to Grow:
Start seed indoors in trays 4-6 weeks before last frost; transplant out after all danger of frost has passed.
Harvesting/Vase Life:
Flower heads get bigger over time, so pick when they are the size you want, but before they go to seed. Strip 80 percent of the foliage off during harvest. Celosias are long-lasting cut flowers, often lasting more than 2 weeks. Flowers can also be dried for later use. Hang freshly cut stems upside down in a warm dark place for 2-3 weeks or until they are firm to the touch.
