Cosmos atrosanguineus (chocolate cosmos) is not growable from seed
(unfortuanely) as it is sterile. This is in fact a rather complex
botanical story for which there is no time this morning.
It is unlike the common Cosmos we all know.
It must be propagated vegetatively. I suggest you do cuttings now &
carry them through the winter or you will have to repurchase plants
next year.
