Plant Description: A compact coreopsis with solitary, yellow, daisy-like flowers that bloom from late spring to late summer. Grows best in dry to medium well drained soil in full sun. Loves poor or rocky soils. Prompt deadheading of spent flowers encourages additional blooming. Does not self seed. Tends to sprawl if grown in moist or fertile soil.
Maintenance:
Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
