Lil Bang™ Darling Clementine Tickseed

Plant in average, well-drained soil. Space 12–15 inches apart. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch lightly around the base. Coreopsis prefers lean to average soil- avoid overly rich or wet conditions.

Water regularly the first season; once established it is quite drought tolerant. Deadhead spent flowers consistently to maintain continuous bloom from early summer through fall. Cut back by about one-third after the main summer flush to tidy the plant and encourage renewed flowering. Divide every 2–3 years in spring. Very few pest or disease problems. A compact, well-behaved coreopsis that works beautifully at the front of a sunny border.
