Coreopsis

Asked on 7 May, 2008 2 replies

What am I doing wrong? My Coreopsis look like they are dead. Everything else in the garden is starting to green up, just as they do every spring in Colorado, but the Coreopsis is still looks dead with no signs of green yet. Am I not giving them (6 plants) enough time? I have removed all the dead/dry leaves around the plant already. Please help, as I don't know whether to pull them up and put new ones in there place, or just give them more time.

What sort of Coreopsis are we talking about? I have several types - one called 'Early Sunrise' is supposed to be hardy over here, but has proved not to be. I have just planted another group as I enjoy their bright colour - but will treat them as an annual this year. The C.vercillicata have reappeared after the winter,however.

I find I lose coreopsis if they do not have good drainage during the winter and even then, it can be a bit touch-and-go if we have a wet winter

Hi Boxer. I have several different Coreopsis in my garden in the mild SW. I find that some types come through the winter fine, by just cutting the stems to the ground in the autumn, while others are not quite hardy and need replacing each year. I hope that yours will survive, but don't be surprised if they don't. The hardiest that I have is C.verticillata, which comes back up each year regularly. Good luck with yours.

Hi Boxer, yes Coreopsis perennials are hardy plants and should winter over in your flower beds, cut them back to the base in late Autumn. Don't let your ground get waterlogged. You can divide the plants when they are three years old.
