They are commonly grown as annuals in zones 2 to 9, but they can survive as perennials in USDA plant hardiness zones 10 and 11, where winter temperatures do not drop lower than 30 °F Sowing: Celosia plants like full sun. They need rich soil with lots of compost to produce big, brilliant plumes. The soil needs to be moist, not wet. Water them during dry periods regularly. Soil should drain well. Add a general-purpose fertilizer once or twice a month. Space small varieties about 18″ apart and larger varieties 18″-24″ apart. Smaller varieties will grow 10″-12″. Larger types will grow up to two feet. Tip: To produce more plumes, pinch back the first one. While you may be anxious for those first bright blooms, this will promote more branching and reward you later. Ideal Soil pH: 6.0 – 7.0.
