Beautiful and tough
"The blue flax germinated but I won't see blooms until next year. The coreopsis is unbelievable! High germination rate and abundant, long-lasting blooms under less-than-optimal conditions: over 40 days of 110 degree (or higher!) temperatures. Yet this resilient plant just keeps blooming and when the blooms stop, the green foliage is still very attractive (no browning, no drooping). Just one watering in the morning and coreopsis keeps producing. Popular with pollinators and unpopular with rabbits! This is a perfect plant for summer desert gardens (Zone 9)."
