Coreopsis grandiflora ‘Sun Up’


Coreopsis

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.165.470


Also known as Tickseed. This selection is a compact version of C. ‘Early Sunrise’ and forms a low mound of leathery green leaves, bearing upright stems loaded with large, semi-double, clear yellow daisy flowers for many weeks, starting in late spring. Plants may require some extra support if grown in very rich garden soil. Easily divided in early spring, and this should be done every 2 to 3 years. Tolerant of hot, humid summer climates. Excellent for borders, as well as in containers. Attractive to butterflies.
