- Pelleted seed is easier to handle for accurate sowing.

Use Celosia Sol Gekko Green as a foliage accent in mixed containers, sunny bedding pockets and patio displays. Its green texture works well beside zinnias, marigolds, petunias and other warm-season colour where a calmer contrast plant is needed.
Growing Notes
- Start in trays for the most controlled results, then transplant after frost danger has passed.
- Keep seed trays evenly moist, using gentle watering so the seed is not displaced.
- Plant into fertile, well-drained soil and avoid waterlogging.
- Water at soil level where possible and allow good airflow in humid areas.
- Pinch young plants only if a fuller, more branched habit is desired.
