Cochia – an annual decorative plant, also known as summer cypress. It grows quickly and forms dense, symmetrical bushes that turn into bright shades of red and orange in the autumn, creating an effective contrast against green plantings.
Cochia seeds sprout easily and require simple care: regular watering, fertilizing, and airing of the seedlings. The optimal sowing time is April–May when the soil warms up. Variety options include hybrid and medium-early varieties available from both domestic and foreign manufacturers.
Cochia is suitable for planting in open ground, flower beds, or even indoors. Thanks to its adaptability to different growing conditions, the plant does not require complex care, making it a popular choice in landscape design for creating bright and picturesque flowering areas.
