Few perennials bloom as reliably and profusely as Coreopsis, and 'Jethro Tull' Coreopsis just might take the prize for the most extravagant display of all. Golden yellow flowers feature overlapping fluted petals surrounding a pollen-rich center, beckoning pollinators from far and wide. This compact, drought-tolerant perennial will naturalize, a standout in hot, sunny borders, planters, and cottage gardens.
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
(15-18" tall x 18-24" wide) The golden yellow flowers of 'Jethro Tull' Coreopsis command attention with their sunny vibrancy, both in the garden and as cut flowers. The 2” wide golden yellow flowers start blooming in spring and continue into summer, commanding attention and enticing pollinators. The plant’s compact form makes it perfect for brightening planters on your deck, patio, or balcony. 'Jethro Tull' Coreopsis is low-maintenance, thrives in full sun, adapts to a range of soils, and is drought-tolerant once established. This reliable bloomer is deer and rabbit resistant, perfect for the front of perennial borders and sidewalk gardens, and is also effective in naturalized areas, wild gardens, or cottage gardens. Good plant for hot, sunny areas with poor, dry soils. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowers. Also known as Tickseed. PP#18,789
