Celosia ‘Dracula’ is a spectacular, award-winning F1 hybrid introduced by PanAmerican Seed, recognized for its dramatic and commercial appeal. The defining feature is its massive, architectural flower head, which combines elements of both plume and crested types to create a dynamic, velvety “dragon’s breath” appearance that holds its intense red color for a very long time.
The plant itself is vigorous and upright, capable of reaching heights of 32 to 40 inches (80–100 cm) with excellent branching, making it a top choice for commercial cut flower production and large landscape designs. ‘Dracula’ thrives in full sun, requires well-drained soil, and is exceptionally heat-tolerant. Its reliable performance, minimal maintenance needs, and striking, non-fading blooms make it a standout annual from summer through frost. The large flowers can reach up to 10 inches (25 cm) across and provide a strong focal point in any garden or arrangement.
