Is coreopsis coming back?

I planted a pair of threadleaf coreopsis "dream catcher" last spring (in different locations), and both thrived through the summer. I cut them back to the ground last fall. This year, there's no sign of either one, not even a peep, even though all of my other perennials, including late bloomers such as echinacea, have appeared.

Are they on their way? Or should I consider them gone forever?

Thanks!

I have had Coreopsis Moonbeam for several years and it is always the last perennial to show it's head. I've divided it and spread it to other areas and it is the last to show up where ever it is. All my other perennials are up but not this coreopsis. I can't count the number of years I thought I'd lost it but in the end it always showed up so I'm waiting once again

Don't lose heart. I'm positive it will show up eventually
