保养说明
Cosmos caudatus is relatively easy to care for. It prefers bright, direct sunlight and moderate temperatures. Water the plant when the soil is almost completely dry, and ensure it has good air circulation. It can tolerate moderate humidity levels and does not require a dormancy period.收成
Cosmos caudatus, commonly known as Ulam Raja, is typically ready for harvest about 60 days after planting.

Ensure that you do not remove more than one-third of the plant at a time to avoid stressing it.土壤
