Coreopsis – tickseed is a wonderful, maintenance-free perennial which shines its way through any garden with richly coloured flowers all summer long. You can have a country garden or be a city-garden enthusiast, coreopsis will still have features suitable for your plot.

Early Sunrise is a profusely flowering tickseed with an extremely long bloom period. It produces semi-double or double flowers of golden yellow colour from early June until late autumn if the weather is sunny and relatively warm. The stems are a little shorter than other grandiflora tickseeds, only about 30 cm tall. Deadheading will enhance the flowering but is not a must, it will still flower abundantly every year and all summer long. Early Sunrise tickseed forms a bushy clump with healthy, light to mid green, narrowly lanceolate leaves, and is not invasive (not selfseeding like some other tickseed species).

Coreopsis will grow in almost any soil apart from boggy and heavy clay, and as it withstands some level of drought it is popular for rockeries. Making it a glowing feature in your perennial bed is the reasonable and expected way of using it. But placing it among shrubs with different foliage and flowers will mean an honour for this easy to grow and affordable beauty. Fully hardy to about -34°C (USDA zone 4).
