Summary

Cristata Mix Celosia is commonly known as Cockscomb because the flowers resemble a rooster's comb. Tall, sturdy plants grow up to 40 inches tall. Thick stalks produce unique blooms in shades of red, yellow, orange, and pink. Heads may reach 7 inches across. Great as cut flowers and can also be dried since they keep their color long after their prime.
