Description

Celosia ‘Century Rose’ (Celosia argentea plumosa) produces lush, rose-pink plumed flowers that add vibrant color and texture to garden beds, borders, and container plantings. The plumes are large—often reaching up to 12 inches long—and stand upright on strong stems. This early-flowering variety is prized for its uniformity, heat tolerance, and ease of production, making it ideal for both home gardeners and commercial cut flower growers.


The Century series is known for thriving in hot summer conditions and maintaining consistent color and form even in full sun. Century Rose performs beautifully in landscapes, mixed containers, or tight-spaced cut flower beds where uniformity and strength are essential.
