We recommend planting the seedlings in full sun, as coreopsis loves hot and sunny spots. The soil should be loamy, humous, and above all, really well-drained. Excellent soil drainage is key, especially to reliably prevent dangerous winter waterlogging of the roots, to which this plant is very sensitive. If you have heavier soil, add a little sand. Plant the seedlings at a distance of 30 to 40 centimeters apart, which in practice corresponds to roughly 7 to 9 plants per square meter. This way, you will get a neatly connected stand in which fresh air will circulate without problems.
After spring or summer planting, water the seedlings regularly and carefully until they reliably root in their new location. Once they are established in the flower bed once and for all, they tolerate drier conditions very well and require abundant watering only during long-lasting summer heat waves. Although we classify it as a short-lived perennial, with proper care you will extend its lifespan.
• Common pests and known diseases completely avoid the plant.
• It needs no chemical treatment, which saves your time and nature.
• Your flower bed will be full of healthy, fresh green leaves and beautifully radiant flowers all summer long, which, by the way, excellently attract beneficial pollinators.
During the peak of summer, you can maximally support rich and tireless flowering by continuously and carefully removing all faded flowers. The plant will thus not invest energy into seed production and will bloom all the more. Coreopsis is also perfectly suited for popular growing in pots and window boxes on balconies or terraces. Here, however, it is necessary to constantly think about more regular watering and using a high-quality growing substrate, which should be mixed with sand for even better water drainage. The growing container itself must have sufficiently large and clear drainage holes at its bottom. Coreopsis grown in pots should always be moved to a frost-free and bright room for the winter as a precaution, where we water them very carefully.
The plant naturally withstands temperatures dropping down to -18 °C, but winter moisture in the soil can fatally harm it. If you decide to completely cut back the above-ground part of the plant, please do so at the very latest at the beginning of autumn, so that it has time to safely regenerate before winter sets in and successfully overwinter into the next season. In an open flower bed, these beautiful plants will also be greatly helped by a preventive winter covering with spruce branches.
The information given is based on our experience, please use it as a guide only. Times may vary depending on the season, climate, location, sowing and transplanting dates and possibly also the conditions in the greenhouse/greenhouse. We always recommend testing how the plant performs in your conditions. Please do not take this as a guarantee.
