Celosia Flower Care: Essentials at a Glance

• Light: Full sun (at least 69 hours of direct light) is optimal to achieve bloom performance.

• Soil & Drainage: Well-draining moderately fertile soil should be used; and no soggy ground should be used in order to avoid rooting problems.

• Watering: Keep well moist when young, and then as it gets established leave the top part of water to dry out between watering. Excess watering would be problematic.

• Temperature: This plant grows in warm and humid climates and will not perform well in cold and frosty environments.

• Maintenance: Deadhead used blooms as an inducement to flower; taller types of plants should have simple staking or support.
