Cosmos, Bright Lights, Cosmos sulphureus (90-100 days) 

An easy plant to grow with big impact.  A mix of golden and orange silky petals float above an airy foliage of thin lacy leaves. Profuse blooms occur from late summer until frost and make excellent cut flowers. Readily reseeds.  A great choice for summer gardening with children or less experienced gardeners, as simply broadcasting the seed will lead to excellent results.  Requires no special care.  A good dye plant.  FLA.
