Growing Information

Growing Burning Embers Celosia

‘Burning Embers’ is an award-winning celosia and 2024 All-America Selections Winner prized for its dramatic foliage, vivid flower color, and exceptional garden performance. Bronze leaves highlighted with dark pink veining provide a striking backdrop for vibrant pink plumes, while strong branching and vigorous growth help plants produce an abundance of long-lasting flowers.

Start ‘Burning Embers’ indoors for transplanting or sow directly where conditions allow. Surface sow the seeds, pressing them lightly into the soil, and space plants 10 to 12 inches apart. Grow in full sun. Its compact growth makes this variety especially well suited to containers and smaller gardens.

Ready to bloom in about 90 days, enjoy the flowers as they open and reach their best display stage. Plants offer an extended flowering window, producing colorful plumes from summer into fall.

Bold, vigorous, and long blooming, ‘Burning Embers’ is an excellent choice for containers, beds, borders, mass plantings, cut flower gardens, ornamental displays, and pollinator-friendly plantings.

Good service.

Got seeds started in my little greenhouse, will see how they do in the garden. Seeds arrived quickly and the price was right.

Bad luck?

Ended up going 0 for 5 with no germination. Planted outside in zone 6 two weeks after mother's day at a depth in accordance with directions.

4 of the 5 seeds germinated, and three grew into healthy stocky plants. Beautiful color.
