I didnt really want a race.More of just see how tall they really get from different parts of the country.
I had a garden group here yesterday.Old neighbors and friends.They were amazed a plant could grow that tall and fast.

My cosmos are puny compared to those. We got some warmer weather for the last week, so things are starting to bolt.

That's neat. The tall ones never do well for me. Our storms (monsoon rains + wind) always flatten them. The shorter ones always do better for me.
