Flamma Golden Celosia (sometimes called Celosia plumosa 'Flamma Golden') is a vibrant annual known for its bright golden-yellow plume-like flower heads that resemble flames or feathers. This upright plant typically grows 12-16 inches tall and makes a bold statement in garden beds, borders, and containers. The vivid blooms last from summer through fall and are excellent for both fresh and dried arrangements. Best bloom in full sun and consistently moist well-drained soils.
