Do you deadhead coxcomb?
Celosia can bloom from June until frost. During that time, deadheading your Celosia will encourage new blooms. Remove the flowers as they start to turn brown and lose color. If you wait too long after this point, seed development starts and the plant puts its energy into that rather than new blooms.
