Description

The plantable folding card contains seeds of the flower "Celosia" (also known as cockscomb) and can be planted like our Growing Calendars. Instructions are printed on the back of the card. The card comes with an envelope made of recycled kraft paper.
Celosia, also known as cockle of the neck, can even be used as a delicious garnish for food and drinks. This exotic plant from the tropics grows to between 30 and 80 centimeters tall and is a true all-rounder. It thrives as a houseplant, on the balcony, or in the garden bed.
Planting:
The best time to sow is in March; as they are light-dependent germinators, you only need to press them down lightly. In a homemade greenhouse, the seeds should be kept moist at 20-23 degrees Celsius. After 8 to 14 days, the beautiful Celosia will germinate and can be separated once the seedlings have at least two pairs of leaves.
Location:
The location should be sunny, warm, and sheltered, but not in the direct midday sun. Celosia thrives best under a roof overhang, where it is not too exposed to rain.
Care:
In the garden bed, fertilize them organically every four weeks; in pots, every two weeks. Only water when the soil is quite dry! It's best to remove wilted flower heads immediately so that new buds will soon appear.
Celosia plants often come back the following year. To encourage this, place them indoors in autumn, either in a warm and bright location or a cool and dark one, and then water them less frequently depending on the conditions.
Why is this product included in the "With Edges and Corners" category?
The cards may have minor imperfections in the paper, but these are not particularly noticeable.
Who is behind the product?
The Growing Calendar is a Nuremberg-based startup that's fed up with our throwaway culture. Their calendars and maps are designed to have long-term, sustainable use and make gardening accessible to everyone.
