Coreopsis Phoenix Mix Seeds - Bred by Jig-Bee

Hardy Annual

Description

Coreopsis tinctoria

This is a mix of bicolored quilled and regular petals that originally came from a selection of a plant with  burgundy/ivory quilled flowers (second photo). Have fun with this mix and see what beautiful color combinations bloom for you.

Coreopsis can be used in bloom or bud form for extra sparkle and texture to bouquets and arrangements.

Coreopsis is a hardy annual and this variety blooms at 3-4 feet tall when planted in the early spring (4-6 weeks before last frost)

For you warmer climate growers, it's worth a try to plant them in the fall to see if they overwinter or plant them out in very early spring February/March when your soil is workable.
