Cosmos sulphureus Cav.

Description
English: Cosmos sulphureus, also known as Sulfur Cosmos and Yellow Cosmos, is native to Central America. This species of Cosmos is considered a half-hardy annual, although plants may re-appear via self-sowing for several years. Its foliage is opposite and pinnately divided. The plant height varies from one to seven feet. The original and its cultivars appear in shades of yellow, orange, and red. It is especially popular in Korea and Japan, where it is often seen in mass plantings along roadsides, following an initiative pursued by the Korean-Japanese botanist Woo Jang-choon.


Some of the varieties of Cosmos sulphureus are in cultivation today. 'Klondyke Mix' consists of a variety of colors in shades from yellow to orange and scarlet. 'Ladybird Dwarf Red', 'Ladybird Dwarf Gold', 'Ladybird Dwarf Orange', and 'Ladybird Dwarf Lemon' are shorter than the species. Another cultivar is named "Bright Eyes".


The orange cosmos is becoming increasingly popular for its ease of growth, spectacular flowers and attractiveness to butterflies. Orange cosmos has rich green feathery foliage that is coarser than that of the common cosmos (Cosmos bipinnatus) but is just as pretty. Depending on variety and conditions, yellow cosmos will grow anywhere from 1 to 7 ft in height. Whatever the height, each plant will produce quantities of solitary, bowl-shaped yellow to orange flowers.
