Chocamocha Chocolate Cosmos (Cosmos atrosanguineus 'Chocamocha') is a sensory delight that brings a touch of decadence to the garden. This unique variety is world-famous for its deep, velvety dark-maroon-to-chocolate blooms that emit a distinct, sweet fragrance of real chocolate on warm, sunny afternoons. The flowers are held on slender stems above a tidy mound of dark green, lobed foliage.

As a sophisticated member of the Cosmos genus, 'Chocamocha' is a more compact and better-branching selection than the traditional species, making it perfect for patio pots where its fragrance can be easily enjoyed. It is a favorite for butterflies and makes an intriguing addition to cut flower arrangements. Why you’ll love it: Incredible chocolate scent, rich velvety maroon color, and a modern, compact habit that blooms relentlessly from summer through autumn.

This healthy 4" live flowering plant thrives in full sun and prefers well-drained soil.
