I love to collect seeds from them,

Happy first of June!

Easy to grow here and a nice addition to your garden if you want lots of white flowers.

Cosmos feels at home in a world of color and light.

Taken last year after a frosty night which finished off the cosmos flowers. At the moment everything on my balcony is still trying to hang on.

HMM!

A friend kindly sent me cosmos seeds from the USA last winter which I carefully tucked away ready for Spring. So carefully that I still haven't found them :(

Hopefully they will reappear this year, but in the meantime I went out and bought some cosmos seeds for the first time and they have been beautiful! Flowering for weeks and still going strong.

Thank you Joan (and Odile!) for helping me find these lovely flowers!
