Celosia argentea (Plumosa Group) (First Flame™ Mixture) flowering habit

It has been our experience that Celosia argentea [Plumosa Group] (First Flame™ Mixture) does not perform well in our area in a warm season ornamental planting. It was found to go to seed too quickly, resulting in its ornamental value to diminish too soon into the growing season. It is about fourteen inches tall and about eight inches wide.
