Sure to take your fancy, as neat mounds of lush, green foliage emerges in spring, and is soon covered by a profusion of little button-like buds. However, the main show starts in early summer as each bud opens to reveal large, cherry-red, daisy-like blooms, every petal boasts a bright yellow margin. Flowering from June to October, the riot of colour encourages bees and other pollinators to your garden, while delighting florists who can use the injection of colour to excite indoor floral creations.Commonly known as 'Large Flowered Tickseed', Coreopsis grandiflora 'Solar Fancy' is a relative of the well-known wildflower and will gently naturalise.Hardy to around -20 C, rating H6 on the RHS scale, Coreopsis grandiflora 'Solar Fancy' is tolerant to drought, heat, and humidity, preferring to be grown in well-drained, even poor, or sandy soil. Planted in a sunny spot it will reach a mature height of 30-50cm, spreading 30-45cm.
