Celosia Flamingo Feather is a striking heirloom flower with upright, feathery bright-pink plumes that add soft texture, movement, and vertical color to sunny gardens. The showy blooms attract hummingbirds and butterflies and continue providing garden interest from summer until frost under favorable conditions. Flamingo Feather also earns its keep in the cutting garden: the plumes add airy height to fresh bouquets and retain their distinctive form when dried for long-lasting arrangements. This packet contains 1,000 non-GMO, open-pollinated seeds.

Germination Rate: 86%. Test Date: 11/24. AWSC.

Why Choose Celosia Flamingo Feather?

• Bright Pink Plumes: Feathery blooms bring vivid color and a softer texture than traditional crested celosia.
• Vertical Garden Interest: Upright flower plumes create height and movement in beds, borders, and mixed plantings.
• Fresh-Cut Flowers: Long stems and unusual texture make the blooms useful as accents in summer bouquets.
• Excellent for Drying: Properly harvested plumes retain their form for wreaths, arrangements, and seasonal crafts.
• Pollinator Appeal: Flowers can attract butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden.
• Heat-Loving Color: Performs best in warm weather and full sun after frost danger has passed.
• Non-GMO and Open-Pollinated: A classic choice for gardeners who value traditionally bred flowers.

Planting Tips for Success

• Sunlight: Choose a site with full sun for sturdy growth and abundant flowering.
• Soil: Plant in fertile, well-drained soil. Mix finished compost into poor soil before planting.
• Starting Seeds: Start indoors before the last frost or sow outdoors after frost danger has passed and the soil has warmed. Press the small seeds lightly into the surface because light aids germination.
• Moisture: Keep the seed-starting mix evenly moist but not waterlogged. Once established, water at the soil line when the upper layer begins to dry.
• Spacing: Thin or transplant seedlings about 6–8 inches apart to support airflow and plume development.
• Fertilizing: Use a balanced fertilizer according to label directions if soil fertility is low. Avoid excessive nitrogen, which can favor foliage over flowers.
• Support: Plants are generally self-supporting, but tall stems in exposed locations may benefit from discreet support.
• Harvesting: Cut fresh stems when plumes are well colored and developed. For dried flowers, harvest on a dry day and hang small bundles upside down in a dark, ventilated place.
• Deadheading: Remove faded blooms to keep the planting tidy and encourage continued flowering where conditions allow.
