By Zahra: I have found an image of the flower I need to know how to care for this beautiful plant. Thanks for your help.

Answer By The Flower Expert: Celosia Plant Care. Cockscombs are easy to grow from seed, either indoors under lights or outdoors in the garden. Space plants 8-12 inches apart depending on expected height of the variety you are planting. Cockscombs grow best when mulched. Spray the foliage of flowering annuals with a dilute solution of liquid fertilizer to give them a hot weather energy boost. When the plants die with the first hard frost, remove them to the compost pile but keep the beds mulched right through the winter, ready for next year's plants.
