Know before you buy
Yes, both Lanceleaf Coreopsis and Blue Flax are perennials. They are designed to return year after year, provided they are planted within their recommended hardiness zones of 5 through 9.
Absolutely. These varieties are specifically chosen for their ability to thrive in poor or dry soil conditions, making them an excellent choice for hillsides or areas where other plants struggle.
No, both species are drought-tolerant once established. While they need regular moisture during the initial germination phase, they require very little supplemental watering once they have taken root.
You can plant these seeds in either the spring or the fall. Fall planting is often preferred in many regions as it allows the seeds to settle in and benefit from winter moisture before germinating in the spring.
The coverage depends on your desired density, but generally, 2 pounds of seed is sufficient for a significant meadow or mass planting area. For best results, broadcast the seeds evenly over prepared soil and lightly rake them in.
Yes, both Lanceleaf Coreopsis and Blue Flax are highly effective at attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. Because the seeds are neonicotinoid-free, they are a safe choice for supporting a healthy garden ecosystem.
