Hello, a big greeting to all the friends of this great community, I am writing to you to present my Beautiful flower of cockscomb or velvet flower (Celosia cristata) is a species of herbaceous plant belonging to the Amaranthaceae family, they are shaped like crest and are velvety and thick, in your hands it gives you a feeling of having a
soft cuddly ball.
The cockscomb reproduces by seeds, it can be sown directly in a flower garden or indoors for later transplant. It will be transplanted when it achieves its first leaves and has reached a height of about 10 cm, it prefers direct sunlight or in partial shade it adapts, in a soil enriched with a significant dose of homemade compost (banana peel, egg shell, coffee) are my favorite ingredients, its watering should be every two days if its leaves don't get sad.
The benefits of this flower are multiple apart from being ornamental. An oil is usually extracted from the seeds to prevent scurvy, which is the lack of vitamin C, which causes damage to the blood. This oil is used as a remedy for diarrhea and intestinal parasites. As it has astringent, purifying and antibacterial properties, it is used to treat some skin diseases.It should always be used under medical supervision.
In some countries they use it for salads, they boil its flower.
