Coreopsis grandiflora ‘Sunburst’


Coreopsis

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.165.050


Also known as Tickseed. Plants form a low mound of leathery green leaves, bearing many upright stems of large, fluffy golden-yellow semi-double to double daisy flowers for many weeks, starting in early summer. Removing faded flowers regularly will encourage blooming to continue into the fall. This is a taller selection that may need staking, if grown in rich soil. Plants are easily divided in early spring, and this should be done every 2 to 3 years. Tolerant of hot, humid summer climates. Excellent for borders, and attractive to butterflies. Selection of a wildflower native to the southern USA.
