250 Seeds Coreopsis Plains Dwarf Red Heirloom Wildflower Garden Planting

Coreopsis Plains Dwarf Red is a compact, easy-to-grow annual wildflower prized for its bright crimson-red blooms on slender stems. This heirloom variety brings long-lasting color to meadows, borders, and wildflower plantings, and its dwarf habit makes it well suited to smaller spaces and container gardens.
The cheerful red daisy-like flowers rise above fine green foliage and bloom over a long season, making them a favorite for cut flower arrangements and pollinator-friendly landscapes. Sow seed directly into prepared beds or scatter across open ground in spring or fall for a naturalized look, and allow spent blooms to self-sow for returns in following seasons.
