'Super Star' is a super bloomer – large lemon-yellow and crimson-red flowers have a golden center and attract pollinators by the hundreds; but they are seldom damaged by deer. 'Super Star' is a great compact pick to use for groundcover, at the front of meadows or borders, on rocky hillsides, or along a pathway. Or, enjoy 'Super Star' as a perennial spark of color in your favorite sunny container garden. Shearing mid-season will promote new flushes of blooms from early summer through to fall. 'Super Star' certainly loves that heat, and should be planted in a sunny site with well-draining soil. This low-maintenance perennial been rated highly in independent plant trials. Like all Coreopsis, once it's established after a year of proper care, it is highly heat-and-drought-tolerant.
