One of the best and oldest varieties of cultivated wildflowers. These plants prefer the well-drained soil poor so many of us are blessed with. Coreopsis is a great cut flower that is deer resistant, drought tolerant, butterflies adore it. Coreopsis has also proven to be a ladybug magnet to our gardens. Ladybugs are very beneficial to any garden as they are known to eat aphids.

Sow 2 mm deep indoors or sow directly outdoors after the risk of frost has passed in your region. Transplant and sow your coreopsis in clumps/groups for a more satisfying display. Germinates 14 to 21 days.

Coreopsis prefers full sun and even moisture. If you mulch the base with compost, it will double its blooms.
