Celosia Asian Garden

This spiked beauty claimed victory in North America’s trial sites to become the first ever AAS Winner from Japanese breeding company Murakami Seed. The judges gave this entry high marks in the greenhouse for the good branching, almost bushy growth habit and early to bloom flower spikes.

In the garden, Asian Garden Celosia continued to bloom on sturdy stems, keeping the bright pink color all summer long, holding up even through some of the first frosts of the season. The AAS Judges commented on the fact that this celosia was a pollinator-magnet, making this AAS Winner a sure bet for pollinator-friendly gardens.

A pollinator magnet, with bright pink spikes all summer long, holding up even through some of the first frosts of the season. AAS winner.

Celosias thrive in high heat situations, and produce long-lived blooms that add color to gardens and combination planters for the majority of the gardening season. Choose the taller types for cut flowers. Though great in the garden, growers love the texture and intense color of plumed Celosias as accent flowers.

Gorgeous annual with its spikey, delicate flowers is a big attraction for butterflies.
