    Against common prejudice, I find cosmos does much better in light shade even if it flowers a month later.
    Hi B3.

    You sound like a proper gardener so I’m not going to question the right conditions etc. I love my garden but no expert. I just plonked un a large pot & well, it obviously likes it & has gone a bit mad really! Thanks for your reply. Db

    Wow, seriously impressive! Adds a whole new dimension to dead-heading; hanging upside-down from the bathroom window  :D

    I play with plants and soil and sometimes it's successful

    Save seeds from that plant and see if they grow that tall next summer!
