On very hot days, spray the leaves to increase the humidity around her. It tolerates the wind, but not the brackish one and the land it must be based on peat and sand in equal parts, always very well drained. Wet Celosia in moderation but regularly throughout the hot season and fertilize it every 15 days with liquid fertilizer for flowering plants in the irrigation water.

Eliminate dry parts after withering to stimulate the birth of another stem that will prolong flowering.
