Cosmos, the Glory of the Autumn Garden 
Cosmos© 
Annual. 4 to 6 ft. July to Frost. Grace and 
brilliancy are the characteristics of Cosmos. 
No garden is complete without them. They 
are the most attractive Autumn flower and a 
general favorite with all. Early varieties begin 
flowering in July, but Cosmos reach the height 
of beauty in the Autumn when they become 
the conspicuous feature of the garden. 
These artistic flowers measure 3 to 4 inches 
across, are borne on long stems with feathery 
foliage, making them very graceful and de- 
sirable for bouquets. They are effective when 
planted in broad masses or against evergreens 
or fences. Cosmos are easy to grow. Sow in 
the Spring in the open ground and transplant 
to 18 inches apart. Try some of each of the 
following types.
