When we moved into our home six years ago, I planted cosmos. I love the feathery green and the bright pink flowers. They are so cheerful. Well, I've not had to purchase seeds since. Cosmos reseed themselves wonderfully. They come up nilly-willy in the vegetable patch, the flower beds, even the pots. I let them grow wherever, then transplant them to where I want them. So accommodating.
