COSMOS CAUDATUS

Unlike the very popular but smaller Cosmos sulphureus cultivars (Family: Asteraceae (Compositae)) with colours ranging from yellow, orange, red, white, pink to purple, the pinkish flower of the C. caudatus is smaller and the plant is taller and less free-flowering.

Nevertheless, I do appreciate the beauty of the smaller flowers. Not all good things come big.
