Limerock Ruby is a stunning
new Coreopsis introduced from Blooms of Bressingham. Masses of ruby-red,
daisy-like, flowers on rounded clumps of foliage. Plants grow to
only 2 feet tall making it easy to use in the perennial border.
Flowers profusely from June through September, and profusely is
putting it lightly - Limerock Ruby absolutely covers itself in color.
Plants are not as cold hardy as other varieties of Coreopsis, and
can freeze out in zones colder than 6. Plant in full sun in
a medium fertile soil that has been amended with organic material.
We do not recommend the use of manure as a soil amendment with any
type of Coreopsis as it often results in lush foliage with very
sparse blooms. Plants may need to be sheared or hard pruned in late
summer to promote a second flush of flowers. *(Plant Patent
