Novel cosmos resemble fluted cupcake wrappers.
Cupcakes Blush is as showy as Double Click with lighter-weight blooms held upright on stems. The light-colored, finely pleated blooms float above the foliage, reminding us of Degas' paintings of ballerinas. A small percentage of flowers have lovely, tufted centers. Ht. 40–50".
