Cocks comb

From LoveToKnow Garden

Cocks-comb (Celosia) - Indian annuals of the Amaranth family, generally too tender for the open air, though effective in bold groups. For this purpose they should be sown in pans in March, and kept near the glass to prevent the seedlings being drawn, and as soon as they are large enough to handle they should be pricked off into small pots and grown on fast in gentle heat until the crowns are formed. Planted out in June in rich soil, and liberally watered, they continue in good condition for a long time.
