Celosia (Celosia Spicata Flamingo) - If you like to dry flowers, start Celosia Spicata seeds for a spectacular annual that makes lovely everlasting blooms! This flower features attractive long stems of bi-colored rose and deep pink flower spikes. It is one of the most popular Celosia seeds to grow as it makes a great cut flower and it dries and preserves well. Celosia Spicata is often used in dried everlasting arrangements. Common names include Wheatstraw Celosia or Wheat Celosia, and it is grown as an annual in most USDA zones; however, this flower will grow as a tender perennial in frost-free zones. Grow in rich to average well-drained soil in full sun. Wheat Celosia is grown from very fine flower seeds. The Celosia seeds can be directly sown into your flower garden or seeded indoors for transplanting later. If planting outdoors, sow after the soil has begun to warm in the spring. We recommend starting them indoors 4 - 6 weeks before the last frost date for your area. The flower seeds need to stay moist and require warm soil to germinate.
