USES & COOKING SUGGESTIONS
Scarlet Cockscomb is great for fresh bouquets, but also dries very well. Hang small bundles of the flowers with stalks upside-down in a dry, warm, dark place. We use these to decorate our Christmas Tree, as they hold a lovely red color, but they are also a welcome addition to any dried flower arrangement or wreath. When you are drying the flowers, put a sheet underneath and you will be able to collect seeds for next year’s garden!

Beautiful flowers. Thank you for the quality seeds.
I ordered these seeds for my dad. He is fond of them and they remind him of Mexico.
I really wish I could add a picture.
We planted them in April and they’ve sprouted in the hot humid Houston weather. While two of my pots have grown to be a foot to a foot and a half tall, one exceptional one is already two feet tall! They’re bright with a red and proudly tall.

My flowers have bloomed and they are a bright red and the tallest one is a foot-and-a-half tall. The shorter ones are around a foot tall. I planted them about three to four months ago. Highly recommended as a gift and to have unique plants in your garden.
Here are some picture.
