Description: COREOPSIS GRANDIFLORA 55 Fresh Seeds for 2022 from My Brooklyn Botanical Garden Club FREE USA SHIPPING Coreopsis Grandiflora Butterflies Just Love Them! Coreopsis grandiflora, The common name Tickseed, is a very self seeding perennial. Needs a sunny spot to really bloom a lot, and you should give it some room, because it tends to sprawl out, in its second year. Culture Easily grown in dry to medium moisture, well-drained soil in full sun. Thrives in poor, sandy or rocky soils with good drainage. Tolerant of heat, humidity and drought. Prompt deadheading of spent flower stalks encourages additional bloom and prevents any unwanted self-seeding. If left untouched it will continuously self seed itself and it may also spread by rhizomes. Plants are sometimes short-lived during harsh freezing winters and in this case it's self-seeding properties will Guarantee to perpetuate a long-lasting spot with yellow daisy-like flowers in your garden. Plants may be cut back hard in the summer if foliage sprawls out too far. When grown in borders or other formal garden areas, division may be needed every 2-3 years to maintain robustness. It may also be grown as annuals if preferred. Noteworthy Characteristics Coreopsis grandiflora, is native to prairies, glades, open woods, thickets, roadsides and open ground in the southeastern U.S.A, from Florida to Texas and New Mexico north to Georgia, Missouri and Kansas. Through introduction and garden escapes, this coreopsis has become established in the eastern and central U.S. well north of its native range. It typically grows in a clump to 2' tall. Daisy-like single flowers (2-3" diameter) feature deep yellow rays (notched at the tips) surrounding a darker golden yellow center disk. Flowers appear singly atop slender, erect stems rising to 2' tall. Flowers typically bloom from late spring to late summer and sometimes into fall, though bloom period can be much shorter if spent flowers are not regularly deadheaded.
