Closed for 2012.

Description


Upright mound of bright pink flowers with cheery yellow centers. Foliage is delicate with an airy appearance. Lovely next to a bold, large-leafed neighbor. Note that unlike other coreopsis this species needs consistent moisture to do well. The average well-watered garden is usually sufficient.

Care


Although most Coreopsis are considered drough tolerant, this species needs consistent moisture. After bloom, shear off spent blossoms to tidy-up plant and prevent seeding. Shearing also encourages second fall blooming. Vigorous grower under right conditions. Rhizomatous cultivar.
