Pretty. My plains coreopsis had a bunch of nearly red ones along with the bicolor. So dainty.

Those are great pics!!!

I really love coreopsis, now that I have figured out it's "ways". I use to make myself crazy trying to deadhead every skinny stalked spent bloom, now I wait till the whole crowd is done blooming and give it a quick haircut with my big garden shears. Starts making new buds right away - such a trooper!

Is that last pic also "moulin rouge?" I really love the almost 50/50 distribution of yellow and a true red. I don't think I have had that variety... if it's not MR, what is it?

Thank You. Nan the last picture is of Coreopsis Plains.

Huh. Now I know I've grown that in the past but mine only had a tiny bit of a red ring. I like yours better. I wonder if it just has variations from plant to plant?

Beautiful! I used to grow Plains. After seeing your photo, I'll have to start again! And the Moulin Rouge as well.
