Texas Plume - Organic Celosia Seeds
🚚 FREE SHIPPING for all orders over $79!
Texas Plume celosia sends up feathery plumes in jewel tones—scarlet, magenta, gold—that hold their color in both garden and vase. Celosia originates in tropical Africa and Asia; its young leaves are eaten as “soko” in parts of West Africa, though this variety is mainly ornamental.
Heat and humidity don’t faze it, and the blooms dry beautifully for winter crafts. Plant it where you want vertical color that lasts, from cutting rows to front-porch pots. Few annuals deliver such long, unwavering bloom in brutal summer weather.
Every order is packed with care by our small team in Pennsylvania and typically ships within 2–3 business days—often by the next business day. We ship throughout the United States using USPS and UPS.
Unopened items may be returned within 30 days of delivery. If an order arrives damaged, incomplete, or incorrect, please contact us so we can make it right.
We stand behind every packet we sell. Our seeds are carefully selected, tested for germination, untreated, and guaranteed to be true to variety.
Your seeds are covered for one year from the date of purchase. If they fail to germinate under reasonable growing conditions, arrive damaged, or do not grow true to type, contact us and we’ll make it right with a replacement, store credit, or refund.
Start seed indoors 6-8 weeks before transplanting into the garden. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is 65-75°F. Cover soil very lightly as seeds require light to germinate. Harden off and transplant to the garden 1-2 weeks after your average last frost date. Prefers well-drained, fertile soil high in organic matter. Or, plant seeds directly in the garden after average last frost date for locations with a long growing season. Excellent for both fresh and dried cut flowers.

I haven't started the seeds yet, but I'm so glad I found a Pennsylvania resource for seeds. I'll be ordering all my seeds from Bucktown!
