Bring a taste of the finer things in life to your garden with the thread-like foliage of DESIGNER THREADS™ Coreopsis. The mounded habits of this collection will add fine texture to the garden from the moment they emerge in spring. Each variety was selected only after showing exceptional mildew resistance to preserve that fine foliage. Blooms on this series persist for many weeks - opening cleanly with broad, flat petals.

Golden yellow flowers contain sharp maroon central eye zones. Like 'Creamy Calico', flowers are clear bi-color and do not contain any flecking or bleeding in the petals. Flowers are notably large for C. verticillata at 2" wide.

Coreopsis is easy to grow, making it a good choice for beginners. One plant will provide you with long-lasting cut flower bouquets all summer long.
