Celosia 'Deep Purple' is a stunning variety that brings a burst of colour and textural interest to summer displays. The feathery flower spikes of this showy plant create a captivating visual impact, making it an excellent choice for both pots and borders. Whether used as a focal point or as part of a mixed planting scheme, 'Deep Purple' adds a touch of vibrancy and allure. This celosia thrives in full sun, requiring a position that provides ample sunlight. When it comes to soil, it prefers humus-rich, moist, and well-drained acid soil or ericaceous compost. However, it's important to note that 'Deep Purple' is frost tender, so it's essential to provide protection during cold weather. To care for Celosia 'Deep Purple,' ensure it is well watered during hot and dry weather. Additionally, trim back faded flower spikes as they fade and consider moving the plant to a sheltered spot, such as a greenhouse or conservatory, before the first frost arrives.
