Pink Coreopsis, Pink Tickseed, Pink Threadleaf Coreopsis
Botanical Name: Coreopsis rosea
Category: Sun Perennials
Height: 8-12"
Spread: 12-18" +
Exposure: Sun
Care: Cut back in fall or spring before new growth begins
Deer Resistant: Y
Description: Long summer bloom and airy foliage provide good accent in borders or rock gardens. Good small area ground cover. Good in naturalized areas, native plant gardens or cottage gardens. Unlike other species of Coreopsis, C. rosea needs consistently moist soils in order to thrive. Avoid poorly-drained heavy clay soils, however. Plants may be sheared in late summer to promote a fall rebloom and to tidy the planting. In optimum growing conditions, plants will spread in the garden by rhizomes and self-seeding to form a dense ground cover. Native plant, attractive to Butterflies.
