Hi, Im going through catalogs trying to find any non-yellow coreopsis that can handle heat and preferably drought, i'd like pink but any thing that is not yellow would be good.

I'd welcome suggestions, thanks!

Coreposis rosea is a pink threadleaf coreopsis so it looks sort of like a pink version of 'Moonbeam' or 'Zagreb'. There are a few selections I've run across, including 'Heaven's Gate' and 'Sweet Dreams.' It's supposed to be fine zones 5-9 and isn't super dry tolerant, but is fine with well-drained average soil.
