Coreopsis 'Cosmic Eye' (Big Bang Series)
Tickseed 'Cosmic Eye', PP22601, BIG BANG™ Series
Long blooming, Coreopsis 'Cosmic Eye' is a compact herbaceous perennial forming a well-branched mound of mid-green foliage that remains fresh-looking all season. Blooming profusely from early summer through early fall, it is covered with a profusion of large, bright sunny yellow blossoms, up to 2 in. across (5 cm), adorned with a prominent wine-red heart and an orange button. Its compact size makes it perfect for beds, borders, containers and small gardens.
- Grows up to 12-18 in. tall and wide (30-45 cm).
- Thrives in full sun in dry to medium moisture, well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established.
- Easy to grow, relatively pest and disease free, this Coreopsis is a favorite of bees and butterflies but is ignored by deer.
- Very versatile, it is a welcomed addition to borders, cottage gardens and does great in containers. Effective as an accent plant and spectacular in mass plantings.
