| Coreopsis Creme Brulee, Tickseed |
Zones: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

|
|
|
Here is a very long blooming, mounding, spreading Coreopsis that is a Blooms of Bressingham introduction. It has bright creamy butter yellow flowers that cover its mounds of bright green, ferny leaves for months from early summer into the fall. The flowers are larger and a darker yellow than Moonbeam. Shear periodically to keep it producing like mad. Creme Brulee would be great in the front of the border in full sun and average soil. It tolerates heat and humidity very well. Cat# 1553
