Notes:

I have 5 of these plants that have been growing in my wildflower garden since July – several are between 8 and 10 feet tall. The flowers suddenly started blooming last week and look like sulphur cosmos but from what I’ve read those max out at 6 feet and usually are no taller than 3-4 ft. Has anyone heard of 10’ cosmos?!

    Yes, Cosmos sulphureus can grow to that height. In my experience this species often grows much taller than the indicated height. Best wishes!
