2i2° Chinese Woolflower Celosia 
Deep Crimson Scarlet 
Plants grow two to three feet high, the blooms starting early, with a 
central globular head which often reaches the immense size of two feet in 
circumference. Scores of branches are thrown out, each bearing a ball of 
scarlet wool. All these branches support numerous laterals with small 
heads of bloom mixed with fresh green foliage so that a plant looks like 
an immense bouquet splendidly arranged and set in the ground. None of 
the blooms fade in any way until hit by frost, but all continue to expand 
and glow with a deepening richness of color, a deep crimson-scarlet. 
Flowers, when cut in a fresh state and carefully dried retain their shape 
and brilliant color and are useful for winter decorating, like everlastings,

small meshed sieve. Keep shaded and moist until the seedlings 
appear. Transplant as soon as they are large enough to be 
handled.
