A true summer showstopper, Cosmos White is beloved for its delicate, feathery foliage and crisp white daisy-like flowers that seem to float on slender stems. It brings an elegant softness to beds, borders, and containers — perfect for brightening up South London balconies or adding a gentle contrast to bold blooms like Rudbeckia or Salvia.
