Description
Questions and Answers
Both flowers and leaves are very attractive. This species, along with other
Coreopsis
species, is great for attracting bees in the early- to mid-growing season. Many of the domestic coreopsis varieties are derived from this species.
When you visit us in May or June, you can see how native plants can beautify the highways as lanceleaf coreopsis blooms for miles along highway 54. It is easy to grow from seed and makes a good nurse crop for prairie and glade restoration projects.
Uses: bees, butterflies, pollinators, host plant, drought tolerant
Bloom time: May & June
Height: 16 to 24 inches
Space: 12 to 24 inches
Sun: Full sun to light shade
Moisture: Dry to average
Seed: Harvest in June. Can germinate without out stratification, but 4 weeks cold-moist stratification will increase success. Sow outdoors between November and February. The following seeding rates should deposit about 30 seeds per square foot:
13,800 seeds per ounce
1 ounce per 500 square feet
6 pounds per acre
Q:
Do you have lancelet coreopsis seeds in stock? I'm hoping to plant a variety of deer-resistant ground cover flowers that are good for butterflies & hummingbirds. Thanks, Sue Ann

A:
It can be surface-sown from late November through February. There are usually a lot of dormant seeds that will need a period of cold, moist conditions in order to germinate.
