Not all growers have time to grow seedlings favorite annual flowers. And someone just not enough room on the windowsills. Fortunately, some flowers grow successfully when planting seeds directly into open ground to a permanent place. My personal favorite - coreopsis! Looks bright, fun, time to decorate the garden because of the short growing season.

Traditional painting coreopsis - a range of warm colors from lemon yellow to crimson. There is a cute pink varieties. Very beautiful two-color coreopsis, for example, wide yellow petals with maroon eye in the center.

Coreopsis - bright, "solar" plant brings to the country the positive tone. Be sure to enjoy the cheerful gardeners! The height of the different species and varieties coreopsis varies from 40 to 120 cm, so there is a suitable plant for any event.

I sow coreopsis along the southern and western walls of outbuildings. I like about 60 cm tall sredneroslye varieties - so turn bright pillows!

Coreopsis - not exactly the flower for which will have to "run". It grows quickly, without whims.

Basic care fad:

  • water coreopsis is necessary only in 2 cases. Young plants whose root system is small, need to be watered as the drying of the upper layer of earth on a bed. Adults coreopsis well tolerated temporary drought and in need of moisture only if it is hot and there was no rain for several days.
  • It grows well without dressings. But for a handful of complex mineral fertilizers certainly thank the generous flowering.
  • tall types tied to a pole, so they do not bend because of the rain, wind and gravity.

An ideal option for those who do not want to bother with special care.

For coreopsis selected sunny place. It would be nice if it is protected from strong winds.

First you have to make furrows for planting the seed, and then distribute them at a distance of 10-15 cm from each other (the exact scheme will be on the packaging with a specific grade). Sprinkle the ground and wait for the magic of the sun!
