Coreopsis - Crème Brulee
Coreopsis - Crème Brulee The Coreopsis ‘Crème Brulee’ is new to the market and has bright deep yellow flowers that blooms from June through October. Belonging to the Tickseed family, ‘Crème Brulee’ has larger flowers than most Coreopsis in its family. (PPAF) ‘Crème Brulee’ has a plant height of 24” and a spread of 18”. The bright green thread leaf foliage makes a great contrast with the flower color. The large flowers occur all along the stems rather than just above the foliage, giving a fuller overall appearance. ‘Crème Brulee’ should be planted in full sun. It is drought-tolerant and tough but does need well-drained soil. The foliage is mildew-resistant and should be cut backing early and late summer to extend the bloom period. A perfect sun-loving plant, it looks great with any type of grass, in borders or mass plantings in sunny gardens. Butterflies find it irresistible and deer leave it alone. Since it thrives in poor soil and has low water needs, ‘Crème Brulee’ will easily add beauty to any trouble spot in your garden! * Mildew resistant * Drought tolerant * Long blooming
