Celosia argentea includes ornamental groups with very different inflorescences. Cristata forms have flattened, crested heads; Plumosa forms have branching, feather-like plumes.

Botanical characteristics

These are flower-structure distinctions, not just colour names. This tropical annual suits warmth, sun and well-drained soil.

Crested and feathered flower heads

For resale, compare dwarf Coral Garden mixed with Pampas Plume mixture. The catalogue separates crested references from plume types and also uses habit labels. Retain both the flower group and the named selection when requesting bulk seed.
