Cupcake Blush Cosmos (Blush Designer Cosmo)

Cupcake Blush Cosmos - When these are picked and massed together in a bouquet it makes a wonderous sight. Cupcake cosmos look like they are wrapped in a cupcake wrapper. They have a double layer of blossoms but sit just in the perfect way that it looks like a cupcake wrapper and a cupcake. They are just so cute!  This one is not in our normal $3 price group as the seed is quite a bit and who wants less than 25 seeds for cosmos in a packet! It is still an amazing buy.
