Coreopsis
grandiflora 'sunray' * Tickseed |
| When it
comes to all out color Coreopsis Sunray is hard to beat. At times there are more flowers than I
have patience for and because of this I ration how many of these that I will use in
a landscape. It just takes too long to make them look good if you use
too many. If you don't take
off the flowers they stop blooming for the season. When I use
them for highlights in sunny locations and keep their numbers within
reason this is an excellent source for summer color. I cut them back nearly to the ground in
the winter. In coastal gardens they can get mildew. I cut them
back as if it were winter and often get a second show. For a closeup of the
flower.
