Coreopsis in the photo

The numerous Aster family has a huge number of beautiful flowers. One of the representatives of this family is coreopsis, numbering more than a hundred species. Despite the huge number of species, only about 10 species are cultivated.

The homeland of the plant is South and North America. Moreover, there are both annual and perennial coreopsis.

Looking at the coreopsis in the photo, you can see that there are herbaceous plants, as well as shrubs. Coreopsis stems are erect and branched. Coreopsis inflorescences are represented by baskets on long peduncles.

In order to grow coreopsis, it is necessary to study the temperature conditions, as well as the basic rules for caring for this flowering plant.

Perennial coreopsis are unpretentious plants. They easily tolerate minor winter frosts and summer droughts. However, they love light very much, so the area where coreopsis grow should be well lit. There is only one requirement for the soil - it must be light.

Coreopsis in the photo from different angles looks very beautiful. Especially if the photos were taken during a period of intense flowering.

Tall coreopsis can be used for flower gardens that combine several types of plants. The advantage of this flower is its long-term durability after cutting. As a rule, coreopsis stand in water for more than one week.

Reproduction of coreopsis is carried out in two ways: by seeds or seedlings. The most common is the seedling method.
