Cosmos bipinnatus "Antiquity"

Unlike traditional cosmos varieties, 'Antiquity' produces stunning blooms in rich shades of raspberry, dusky rose and antique pink that gently soften and fade as the flowers mature, creating a beautifully vintage, cottage-garden effect. The delicate, feathery foliage provides an elegant backdrop to masses of flowers that continue from mid-summer until the first frosts.

Easy to grow and loved by pollinators, Cosmos 'Antiquity' brings movement, colour and natural charm to borders, cutting gardens and wildlife-friendly planting schemes. The long stems also make exceptional cut flowers, allowing you to enjoy their romantic beauty both outdoors and indoors.

Why we've chosen it for our collection

We grow Cosmos 'Antiquity' because of its unique colouring, exceptional flowering period and ability to bring effortless elegance to almost any garden setting. Few annuals offer so much beauty for so little effort.
