Views on this years Chelsea

The cherry chocolate cosmos looks very pretty @zenj . It's a shame they didn't have any actually in flower at Chelsea (as far as l know). I do like the original chocolate cosmos (and the smell !), but have always treated it as an annual.

 

@AnniD and @zenj I’ve grown the pink ‘chocolate’ cosmos (Flamingo) for the past two years and overwintered the tuber like a dahlia. I’m quite fond of them and I will definitely purchase the cherry one when it becomes available. Photo from last year:
