Large, pure white blooms on strong stems.
Afternoon White was bred for cut-flower production. As a tetraploid, it has more substantive flowers and stems. In our trials, it produces strong, straight stems and 2–4" white blooms with bright yellow centers. Early to flower. Blooms are not as profuse as more common cosmos varieties, but the superior stem and flower quality make Afternoon White a good cut-flower choice. Ht. 36–48". Avg. 18,100 seeds/oz. Packet: 50 seeds.
