Dracula Celosia

Celosia cristata 'Dracula'

Dracula Celosia creates a bold display with richly colored burgundy-purple flower heads that rise above the foliage on sturdy stems. The blooms have a distinctive, sculptural shape that gives the plant a strong focal quality without requiring much space. Its compact, upright habit keeps the form neat and contained, while the dark blooms contrast with the surrounding green foliage. Reaching about 12 to 18 inches tall and spreading 10 to 14 inches wide at maturity, it develops a defined presence that works well in borders, containers, and mixed plantings.
