Coreopsis - Pink

"The Coreopsis 'Pink', Coreopsis rosea, is the first pink, with a yellow center, flowering variety of the Coreopsis family. In the Tickseed family, the daisy like blooms flower from June through October with a plant height of 10-12” and a spread of 14-18”. The dark green fernlike foliage makes a great contrast with the flower color. ‘Pink’ Coreopsis should be planted in full sun. Pink Coreopsis is drought-tolerant and tough but does need well-drained soil. It should be cut backing early and late summer to extend the bloom period. ‘Pink’ Coreopsis looks great with any type of grass, in borders or mass plantings in sunny gardens."
