Cosmos atrosanguineus
Cosmos atrosanguineus is a striking tuberous perennial, loved for its deep, velvety maroon-red flowers and distinctive rich chocolate fragrance. Blooming from midsummer into early autumn, it adds dramatic colour and scent to sunny garden displays.
Perfect for borders, patio pots, and cutting gardens, Chocolate Cosmos is also attractive to bees and butterflies. It prefers a warm, sunny position in well-drained soil, and in colder areas the tubers should be lifted and stored frost-free over winter.

Chocolate Cosmos
Cosmos atrosanguineus Care Sheet
Cut back the faded top growth after the first frosts. In colder areas, lift the tuberous roots and store them somewhere cool, dry and frost-free over winter, much like dahlias. Alternatively, plants grown in pots can be moved into a sheltered, frost-free position and kept only lightly moist until spring.
