The species and its varieties and cultivars are popular as ornamental plants in temperate climate gardens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCosmos bipinnatus is an annual that is often considered half-hardy, although plants may reappear via self-sowing for several years. The plant height varies from 2-6 ft to (rarely) 9 ft (0.61–1.83–2.74 m). The cultivated varieties appear in shades of pink and purple as well as white. The branched stem is usually densely to occasionally occupied by fine, split up, rough trichomes, some specimens are completely hairless. The petiole itself is inconspicuous, winged, 10 (rarely to 15) mm (25⁄64–19⁄32 in) long, sometimes the leaves are almost sessile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe partial leaves are linear-filiform to narrow linear with a width of 0.5 to 1 (rarely to 1.7) mm (3⁄128–5⁄128–9⁄128 in); the tips are pointed, hardened, but not particularly sharp. Its foliage is finely cut into threadlike segments. When flowering, the plant can become top heavy. This problem is alleviated when grown in groups, as the bipinnate leaves interlock, and the colony supports itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe achenes become blackish, are smooth or short-bristly. Their shape is spindle-like. They are rounded off into a short, 0.5 to 1.7 millimetres (3⁄128 to 9⁄128 in) long, but distinctly pronounced rostrum. The inner achenes are up to 18 millimetres (91⁄128 in) long, their yellowish beaks are 4 to 5 (rarely to 10) mm (5⁄32–25⁄128–25⁄64 in) long. A pappus is missing or it consists only of two to three awn-like, 1 to 3 millimetres (5⁄128 to 15⁄128 in) large bristles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eSunflower - Gift\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eRich in energy giving oils, Black Sunflower Seeds will attract a variety of birds to your garden.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grow Green Seeds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43357790601302,"sku":"0743","price":3.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0279\/3927\/4838\/files\/IMG_3209.png?v=1758300779","url":"https:\/\/growgreenseeds.store\/products\/0743-10-seeds-of-cosmos-picotee-cosmos-bipinnatus-gift-5-seeds-of-sunflower","provider":"Grow Green Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
