Coreopsis ‘Dream Catcher’


Pink Coreopsis

USDA Zone: 5-9

Plant number: 1.165.560


A very long-blooming perennial for sunny areas, forming a bushy mound of blue-green leaves. The small magenta-pink daisies have a wine-red eye around an orange button centre, appearing in succession from summer to late fall. Shear plants lightly in late July to encourage more buds. Terrific in containers. Plants may require some support if grown in very rich garden soil, or simply shear by half in July if they begin to flop open. Hardier than most other pink forms, into Zone 5 or colder, with reliable winter snowcover. Recently introduced by Bluebird Nursery in Nebraska.
