Daisy-like flowers are then held on strong, slender stems from July through to October, with warming hues which are ideal for a sunny border.

'Kaleidoscopic Cosmos Collection' is comprised of single and double half-hardy annuals which are set to enthusiastically flower their hearts out in vibrant and varied colours, each with a golden centre. Both 'Tango' and 'Rubenza' hold the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit.
