Hardy and very floriferous, Coreopsis 'Red Satin' is a vigorous perennial forming a tight clump of deep green, threadleaf foliage. From early summer through late summer, it produces masses of large, satiny, wine red to ruby red flowers, 1.5 in. across (4 cm), adorned with wonderfully contrasting golden centers. If cut back, the plant can be encouraged to rebloom until frost. Perfect to create a stunning floral display in the garden, it can even be enjoyed indoors as it makes excellent cut flowers. A little toughy, this Tickseed has an excellent disease resistance. Ideal for sunny borders and containers.

• Grows up to 15-18 in. in height (37-45cm) and 24 in. across (60 cm).
• Prefers full sun but tolerates partial shade (specifically in hot summer areas) and enjoys dry to medium moisture, well-drained soils. Thrives in poor, sandy or rocky soils and is drought and deer tolerant.
• Easy to grow, unfussy and relatively low maintenance, this Coreopsis is a favorite of bees and butterflies.
• Welcomed addition to the front of borders, cottage gardens or containers.
