One of the finest colormakers in any wildflower meadow, and a big favorite for roadside plantings since these large flowers make such a colorful show. One of the best flowers for cutting. Heavy bloom begins in midsummer and plants and flowers constantly increase until killed by frost. This is the "wild cosmos," the original form with tall plants and big daisy flowers in three colors--pink, white and maroon. Bloom is non-stop from mid-summer until frost. Plant anywhere in full sun or partial shade, in almost any soil.

The Cosmos Craze: New rage for an old favorite. When it comes to annuals, probably no plant adds more color than cosmos. Your grandmother grew it, today states plant masses along roadsides, and everybody loves it. (Birds love it too, especially goldfinches.) But there's always been one big problem--it's tall, sometimes very tall--up to 6 or 7 feet.

In the right setting, say a wildflower meadow in late summer, nothing's more beautiful than a sea of these big ferny plants waving in the wind, loaded with big blooms in pink, white and maroon. But in gardens, most people prefer shorter flowers. So for awhile, some relegated the "tall" cosmos to the group that's usually called "old fashioned flowers"--beautiful, surely, but a bit tall and rangy for our more sophisticated flower borders today.

Enter the hybridizers. With all that color and such ease of care to work with, they have had a heyday with cosmos. Today, there are all sorts of variations on the originals, some with new-style flowers, and others with simply the classic blooms on shorter plants. All require full sun, and are among the simplest plants on the planet to grow from seed. By the way, even the seeds of cosmos are distinctive; they look like miniature pine needles.

The originals are wildflowersare native to Mexico. This tells you cosmos don't mind hot dry, conditions. In fact, some consider cosmos desert plants. But they're incredibly adaptable. And ever since some plant explorer gathered seeds from the rocky wilds of Mexico and transplanted them into "good garden soil," the world has known that they not only thrive, but enjoy our loamy, well-watered gardens. And if they're not fertilized too much, they rapidly develop into large branching plants with deep green fern-like leaves. If you have a dry season, cosmos plants don't care, and revert to their drought-tolerant roots. Best of all, no matter where they're growing, they cover themselves with more and more wide (up to 4") daisy-like blooms from midsummer on. Only a hard frost stops the cosmos parade. They're fantastic as a blooming screen, or a background for shorter plants. And the big bonus: a grand stand of this garden classic in late summer can provide months of long-stemmed cut flowers for a whole neighborhood.

The Originals. There are scores of native cosmos species, most all native to the Americas, but there are only two that have entered our gardens in a big way:
1. Cosmos bipinnatus, the big one. This is the granddaddy of them all. Hailing from Mexico, it's one of the few wildflowers that is so beautiful it was taken into gardens long ago just as it is in the wild. The old name for this garden classic is simply "Wild Cosmos", "Cosmos Sensation," or "Sensation Mix," since the seeds always produce plants blooming in pastel pink, white, and deep red or maroon, all with bright yellow centers. These are the tall, (to 6 or 7 ft.) graceful cosmos plants of your grandmother's garden.
2. Cosmos sulphureus, the other cosmos. This one's shorter, with more bushy plants and somewhat smaller yellow (to orange) semi-double flowers. It's often called "Sulphur Cosmos" or "Orange Cosmos," and an old variety with particularly glowing orange blooms is called "Bright Lights." The flowers of these often remind me of open-style marigolds on larger plants.

The New Cosmos. Today, the old standard "mixture" flowers of C. bipinnatus have been segregated, and the plants grow from only 3 to 5 feet. So if you particularly like the old pastel pinks, there's "Pinkie," for the pure white, "Purity," and for the old deep rose or maroon, "Radiance." Even though the plants are shorter, all the flowers are still big and beautiful with the familiar bright yellow centers. And this new group doesn't stop with the old basic colors. "Gloria" is a beauty in pink with red-flared centers. And "Daydream" gives you the old pastel pink, but with a darker center flare and darker pink veins all through the petals.

If 3-5 feet is still too tall for you, choose the "Short Cosmos Mix" which gives you all three of the old mixture colors at just 2 to 4 ft. And yes, the flowers are still full size.

Want more variety? Pick "Dazzler" and enjoy unique blunt-tipped daisies in true red, still with the dazzling yellow center, on plants to 5 ft. Then there's the most unusual of all, "Seashells," a big hit with cosmos lovers--its hot pink petals are curled upward at the edges, giving the blooms a frilly look.

And here's my favorite: "Picotee." It gives you full-size daisy blooms in white with the end of each petal looking as though it's been dipped into a rich red paint--and all that jazz is on plants never over 4 feet. This one, like all the others, creates spectacular color in the garden, and even more in a vase.

So comfy
Size: King (Pack of 1), Style: Standard Loft (4" - 5")
I spent time looking up/watching videos on pillows for neck pain and this one comes up a lot. I’m someone that used to wake up every few weeks with a stiff neck so bad it could make me cry at work. I haven’t had that happen once after months of using this pillow. I look forward to laying my head down on it every night. It’s a luxury experience every time. I think what it does so well is maintain its shape. You can really squish it up how you want and it stays there even after hours. Moldable but somehow still firm. It’s expensive but to me the value is there because I no longer get crazy neck pain from sleep. Worth trying it out for sure. Btw I was stuck between this is and Purple brands couple top end options. I never got around to trying them because I tried this one first and was very satisfied! Feb 2026. Still use it every night and it's still protecting me from neck pain I used to get from sleeping. It's held up amazing. Hope to use it for many more years.

Saatva Pillow is great
Size: Standard/Queen (Pack of 1), Style: Standard Loft (4" - 5")
So far this is the best pillow I have had in the last 10 years and I have tried two Purple pillows a couple different memory foam and Gel pillows at least 4 more pillows that I can't even remember the names of. My neck and shoulders are almost pain free. I have also been doing more stretching of my arms which is also helping, but this pillow has really made the most difference in the pain I have had, I felt difference from the first time I put my head on it. It's comfortable, the perfect height I got the 4"-5", I also got the queen size and it's great. It supports my head just right. I also ordered the Saatva Classic 14" mattress from the company and I sure hope it's as good or better would be great because I have back issues for the last 50 years.

Cotton Fluff Around a Mostly Empty Bag
Size: King (Pack of 1), Style: High Loft (6"-7")
Bought the high-loft king, thinking it would be a great (tall) side-sleeper. What I got? A very nice, completely compressible cotton outer shell wrapped around a bag a bit smaller than a standard pillow. In that bag? A tiny amount of small latex chunks, just about a third full. That’s right, some cotton fluff around a basically empty bag. Could you buy some latex yourself and add it? No, the bag is sewn shut. You could probably fill a small pillow with latex you bought elsewhere and put that in. But seriously, what did you pay Saatva for in that case? Probably as close as I’ve seen a major/high-reputation company get towards a literal example of rip off.

Wrong item ships/decent pillow/price unjustified
Size: Standard/Queen (Pack of 1), Style: Standard Loft (4" - 5")
Sent me the wrong pillow twice in a row. It said high loft and standard loft on the packing, not sure what the problem is. I ordered standard loft both times, and both times they sent high loft. That name is very deceiving though. If what I have is high loft, the standard loft wouldn’t be much thicker than your standard flat down pillow. If you’d like any sort of neck support I’d suggest starting with the high loft and going down instead of the other way around. I am 5’ 7” 130lbs and this pillow does not lift my neck up further than neutral, which is a good thing. Shredded memory foam pillows are significantly higher or thicker if that helps. Pillow itself grew on me. You can definitely feel that there is a different material in the center of the pillow. I ordered it as a gift and ended up keeping both pillows. The price tag on this item is absolutely outrageous. I would have never ordered it for myself. Saatva products don’t last in my experience, we got their firmest mattress and within 2 years it was sagging horribly. I am interested to see how long this pillow lasts!

Side sleeper- lost loft within 2 weeks
Size: Standard/Queen (Pack of 1), Style: High Loft (6"-7")
Side sleeper and within 2 weeks this pillow has lost its loft and has become lumpy. I have spent so much money trying to support my neck and shoulders, this unfortunately is not it. I will continue my search and return this one.
