Why Choose Lanceleaf Coreopsis?

Lanceleaf coreopsis is an ideal plant for wildlife-friendly landscapes, offering long-lasting beauty and critical ecological benefits. Whether planted in pollinator gardens, sunny borders, or meadows, its bright flowers, pollinator support, and bird-friendly seeds make it a must-have native perennial.

Planting Tips:

1. Location: Thrives in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil.
2. Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season; drought-tolerant once established.
3. Maintenance: Minimal care required. There's no need to deadhead the flowers, as allowing them to go to seed provides a valuable food source for birds. Leaving the stems standing in the fall offers overwintering sites for beneficial insects. If desired, cut back the stems in late spring after pollinators have emerged.
