Roulette Coreopsis is beautiful, but it's also a powerhouse. It's easy to grow from seed, and takes to transplanting easily. It blooms constantly all summer and even through frosts, heavy rain, and drought. Its fluttery semi-double, bi-color blooms attract all kinds of pollinators. It's as dependable as the sunrise, and a great plant for beginners. Plus - you can use the petals to make dye!

You just can't go wrong with Coreopsis. Hardy, constantly flowering, and tolerant of all weather - we've never known anything to look so dainty but act so tough.

Growing Info

How to Plant	Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball. Fill a little bit of the loose dirt back into the hole and tuck your plant in so the base of the stem is even with the top of the hole. Now fill in the rest of the soil around the roots, give the soft ground around the base of your new plant friend a few solid pats to compress the soil onto the roots, and a long, gentle drink of water
Where to Plant	Find a place that gets a decent amount of sun, with well-draining soil
When to Plant	Plant outside in the late spring, once the soil has warmed up. Avoid the heat of the day when planting — plant in the early morning, late afternoon, or by the light of the moon
When to Expect Blooms	early-summer through frost
Care Instructions	Water regularly until they get established, and then give them extra water during dry spells. Pick blooms to encourage more
Extra Credit	When your plant is about 9-12" tall you can pinch off the main growth tip to encourage a bushier plant with more blooms
