Celosia ‘Dracula’

Celosia ‘Dracula’ is a cockscomb-style stunner cloaked in deep, dark burgundy and vermillion. With velvety, brain-like blooms and purple-black foliage, this low-growing annual is one of our fall favorites.

Topping out around 18" tall, ‘Dracula’ is compact but wildly dramatic. Its otherworldly blooms and dark foliage create powerful contrast in beds, borders, and fall containers—especially when paired with lime greens and golden yellows. The bloom itself can last for weeks on the plant, or even longer when cut and dried.
