With its striking, spherical flowers and intense yellow colour, this celosia provides maximum visual impact in the garden, border and as a cut flower.
What immediately sets Celosia argentea cristata Chief Gold apart are its large, rounded flower heads. Unlike the classic, pleated cockscomb shape, Chief Gold has a more spherical, compact inflorescence that exudes strength and uniformity. The intense golden yellow color gives a sunny, warm appearance and immediately catches the eye.
This distinctive flower structure makes Chief Gold particularly suitable for use as a cut flower. The sturdy, compact flower heads retain their shape well and have a long vase life, both fresh and in dried arrangements.
The Chief series is exceptionally well-suited to warm climates. Celosia argentea cristata Chief Gold performs exceptionally well in high temperatures, where other summer bloomers sometimes struggle with flower quality or stem strength. This makes it ideal for summer cultivation in warm regions or during periods of intense heat.
The plant maintains its growth vigor and flower quality under stressful conditions, resulting in reliable production and consistent quality.
Uniformity is a key characteristic of Chief Gold. The plants develop evenly, with consistent height and flower size. This makes planning and harvesting easier and more efficient for professional growers.
The variety is suitable for:
Plug cultivation (tray production)
Direct sowing in open ground
Cultivation for cut flowers
Summer bed and border planting
The combination of uniform growth and large flower heads ensures a high-quality end product with a strong presentation.
One of the strengths of Celosia argentea cristata Chief Gold is its suitability as a cut flower during warm periods. While some crops lose quality in summer, Chief Gold produces sturdy stems and compact flower heads that retain intense color.

The flowers are suitable for fresh bouquets, field bouquets and even dried flower arrangements, thanks to their sturdy structure.
