Meet one of the most coveted flowers in the garden, Black Magic Chocolate Cosmos. Velvety burgundy blooms so dark they look almost black float on slender stems, and each one carries a rich, chocolate like fragrance. Chocolate cosmos was once available only as sterile plants grown from tubers, which makes this seed grown strain from New Zealand a real treat. It smells like chocolate but is not for eating.
Because this is a variable seed strain, every plant is a little different. Flower shades range from deep burgundy to nearly black, and plant size varies from compact to taller, so no two plants are exactly the same.
Plants reach about 2 feet tall and bloom in the very first year, from summer into fall. They make elegant cut flowers, attract butterflies and bees, tend to be left alone by deer, and do beautifully in containers.
Black Magic is a perennial in zones 8 to 11, growing from tuberous roots. In colder areas, dig the tubers after the foliage dies back and store them frost free over winter, the way you would dahlias, or simply enjoy it as an annual. Give it full sun to part shade and well drained soil, and protect it from winter wet.
As always, every seed we offer is 100% non GMO. Whether heirloom, open pollinated, or hybrid, our seeds are never lab altered or genetically modified, just real seeds bred the traditional way.
Growing Tips:
Start seeds indoors in late winter to spring. Sow just under the surface and cover thinly, keeping the soil constantly moist but not wet at about 68 to 72°F. Seeds typically sprout in 7 to 25 days, sometimes longer. Once seedlings emerge, move them to cooler conditions. Transplant outdoors after all danger of frost has passed, spacing plants 12 to 15 inches apart in full sun to part shade.
