Botanical Name
Celosia argentea (Supercrest Mix)
Common Name
Cockscomb
Family
Amaranthaceae
It has been our experience that Celosia argentea (Supercrest Mix) has a fair performance in our area in a warm season planting. As the plant ages, it can become less attractive towards its base. For this reason, we recommend planting in front of it to cover the bare, and unattractive stems. It is two and a half feet tall and around six inches wide.
