Celosia

Aka: Cockscomb and Woolflowers

Size: 4 inches to 3 feet tall

Lighting requirements: Full to part sun

Seasonal interest: Blooms summer through fall

Winter: Dies, but may come back from seed

There are 3 types of celosia distinguished by their bloom shapes.

Cockscomb - Brain or Coral-like blooms.

Plumed - Multiple feathery bloom stalks (I've seen this one the most here).

Wheat - Single-stalked blooms that look like grain crops.

Be careful not to overwater these plants and watch for fungal infections (good watering practices should help prevent any fungus or mildew).

Fun fact: The leaves of this plant are edible. They're said to taste like spinach, turning bitter after flowering.
