Should Celosia Be Pinched

Important-Do Not Pinch Back All Celosia Types: An example of this type of flower would be Bombay celosia, celosia cristata.

How do you make a celosia bushier?

You can pinch back your celosia stems to encourage a bushier plant, but it isn’t mandatory. By pinching it, you will also encourage the growth of plumes and get a more uniform look. When plants are 8–12 inches tall, remove any dead leaves, limbs, and flowers.

Are celosia cut and come again?

HARVEST: Celosia is exceptional as a cut flower either when harvested fresh or as a dried flower. For fresh use, harvest when the flowers are fully developed. As a dried flower, harvest at the same stage of growth as you would for fresh flowers.
