The semidouble blooms appear in a mix of sunny summer colorsincluding shades of gold, orange, red, and yellowand beckon to honey bees and wild bees as well as hummingbirds. The blooms are long-lasting and make lovely cut flowers for summer bouquets and mixed floral arrangements.

A Cosmos sulphureus cultivar, commonly called sulphur cosmos or cosmos, ‘Bright Lights’ has an upright habit of ferny foliage. The plant is a great addition to garden beds and borders, but it’s also perfect for a patio pot. ‘Bright Lights’ is a must-have for a pollinator garden or cut flower garden , and since it may self-seed in ideal conditions, it’s ideal for meadows gardens and wild, naturalized areas. Cosmos also offer pest control in organic gardens.
