Coreopsis
Coreopsis Culture: Coreopsis all prefer to be sited in full sun to mostly sun (at least 8 hours) in well-drained soil that is
preferably not too compacted. New plantings typically require a bit more water than some other plants initially, although most
are quite drought tolerant upon establishment. Applying supplemental water in summer helps a lot with the blooming
potential.
Removing old flowers is beneficial for most varieties. On some of the newer sterile hybrids it is not necessary for re-bloom
although their appearance may be enhanced by a light shearing to remove the old flower heads once or twice a year. Most
prefer soil of moderate fertility; the newer hybrids that grow and bloom all season perform best with regular feeding and
watering. Any balanced fertilizer is fine.
