I have some seeds for the orange one and some of the Sonata Mix Cosmos. I want to attract more butterflies to my yard. I have no experience with cosmos so is ther anything bad I should no about them? I understand they reseed readily. Can they get too agressive and smother out other plants/bulbs?
Thanks for any help...I wasn't even sure if this should go under annuals or not!!

Re: Cosmos Question
Cosmos will not get too aggressive. Can't think of anything negative to say about them .

Re: Cosmos Question
Cosmos are fabulous and certainly not aggressive even though they reseed.
