These were supposed to grow to a maximum of 60cm but I guess no-one told the seeds that. I am five foot six tall so you can see the heights they reached.
You may also be able to make out the thickness of the stems!
Whilst they weren't quite what I'd intended for up against the side of the house...
we can truly say they have given us pleasure day
.....since the first flowers appeared back in July.
And all for a pack of Lidl seeds costing less than 30 cents!

Ha.... good old Lidl seeds!!
And I hope you've savede some of the seed from these magnificent plants.
Our C. sulphureus is still flowering...
mind you, it should, the damned things didn't get going until the end of September...
I just turfed out our cosmos today, which was sad as there were still a few flowers on them.
They do represent incredible VFM.
