Coreopsis 'Ruby Frost'


Coreopsis 'Ruby Frost' (Coreopsis)

I can't imagine that this Coreopsis will prove to be hardy - I can hope, though!

This was new last year? first time I have seen it and I love it.

I bought it earlier this year, Denise. The Nursery said it was a 'hardier' type than most Coreopsis, but that doesn't mean a lot if the weather is harsh, does it.

No it does not the losers and survivors always surprise me.

One of my Coreopsis did survive the winter. I'm trying to think of its name...not a yellow one, the pink with darker edges.

This is a good name . . . fingers crossed for you, it's a beauty!

I'll have to talk to you about the 'how', Sbg.

american dream sends out runners, through the soil, so I just chop through with the spade, lift and pot.
does this one spread by runners?

I don't know yet - it was new in the spring. The only one I had that sent out runners was C. vercillicata - bright yellow - but I lost that last year. :-( It did stay with me for 4 years, though.
