Is it still alive?

Pretty one, good luck with it :-)

Thanks - the Nursery lady told me that she leaves the top growth on as a kind of protection - like Penstemons! I was thinking the opposite, that I'd cut the Limerocks back and mulch the roots. Apparently wrong tactics! Maybe I'll try that with one of them...like an experiment.

I have the more common yellow ones and they have flowered ever since I bought them beginning of Summer, but I love the pink ones!

The only yellow one that's been hardy in my garden is C. vercillicata - none of the others have stayed. :-(((

Have to wait and see if mine last over winter, I hope so cos it looks really nice agains the cosmos.

I hope so, too. We'll all have to compare notes on Coreopsis in the spring. I saw an advert today for 'bone-hardy' plants. I'm not sure I believe that.

I leave mine over winter, I had 2 American Dream, one survived last year one didn't, and they are in identical soil situations :-( go figure

How very frustrating! Grrrrrr.......

So pretty!

It is - and I'm seriously thinking about over-wintering it in the greenhouse. ;-)

I'll be coming back to ask your advice for a similar alternative to partner the cosmos if it does give up the ghost Spritz!

OK - you're on! ;-)
