A Photograph of a wildflower with depth of field. The focus is on a single purple cosmos bloom, leaving plenty of copy space available.

Cosmos is a genus, with the same common name of cosmos, consisting of flowering plants in the sunflower family. Wikipedia

These lovely flowers belong to the sunflower family and they flower for long periods of time. I have found that you can buy dwarf plants and the normal size ones which can grow up to 6ft tall. The plants were originally native to scrub land and meadow lands in Mexico, but they are now found in many other countries around the world where they grow wild in many different habitats. But best of all you can buy these lovely plants in many shops and garden centres and are a lovely addition to your garden, but you can also grow these lovely plants from seed.

田舎暮らし・コスモス
The cosmos I planted this year have been blooming little by little since August, but they've finally started to bloom all over. I think I'll be able to enjoy them together with the Eupatorium japonicum in October. I wonder if Asagimadara butterflies will come?
今年、自分が植えたコスモスは8月からちょっとずつ咲いていたけど、ようやく全体が咲き始めました。10月にはフジバカマと一緒に楽しめそうです。アサギマダラ、来るかな？

Another one from Sussex Prairie Garden. The day before my visit there had been heavy rain and on the day I was there it was very windy. I'm always amazed by the resilience of apparently delicate flowers. This pretty Cosmos held its head high despite it all. Incidentally, I was also amazed that my lens found anything to focus on. :)
Smell chocolatey, and thus the name.
This variety of cosmos is native to Mexico, and has been extinct in the wild for over 100 years. It is a perennial plant with a fleshy tuberous root. The flowers are red to maroon brown with a center raised area. The plant has a dark chocolate fragrance that becomes more noticeable as the day wears on.
The center of the flower forms in a cluster like appearance and opens into the traditional cosmos shape with velvety petals. Once the flower has died, the plant will benefit from deadheading, which will encourage additional blooms.
