Description
Coreopsis verticillata 'Creamy Calico' is a delightful perennial prized for its thread-like foliage and soft yellow flowers, each contain a broad, defined deep maroon eye. Like 'Golden Needles', flowers are clear bi-color and do not contain any flecking or bleeding in the petals. This compact yet vibrant Threadleaf Coreopsis is perfect for brightening sunny borders, pollinator gardens, and cottage-style landscapes. Blooming abundantly from early summer to late summer, 'Creamy Calico' showcases a long flowering season that invites butterflies, bees, and other pollinators to the outdoor sanctuary. Its finely-textured, thread-like foliage forms a lush mound, adding a soft and delicate texture to the garden beds. Despite its dainty appearance, this perennial is robust, thriving in poor, sandy, or rocky soils and demonstrating impressive drought and heat tolerance once established. Coreopsis verticillata 'Creamy Calico' is an excellent choice for low-maintenance gardens. It resists deer and rabbits, ensuring its blooms stay intact throughout the growing season. This versatile plant is also ideal for naturalizing, providing a carefree beauty that multiplies over time. Use it in mass plantings, as an accent in mixed borders, or even in containers for a burst of cheerful color. This versatile perennial pairs beautifully with a wide variety of garden plants. Its creamy yellow flowers with maroon centers create stunning contrasts when combined with deep purples, blues, and vibrant pinks of plants like coneflowers, Russian sage, or salvia. It also works well alongside ground covers like creeping thyme or sedum, which add texture and fill gaps in garden designs. For seasonal interest, pair it with spring bulbs such as daffodils and tulips, or use it with native plants to enhance wildlife-friendly garden themes.Listed with ExportYourStore.com
