Corusco Cream-Red
Coreopsis Seeds
a.k.a. Tickseed
Coreopsis tinctoria
2025 Fleuroselect Gold Medal Winner and 2024 Fleuroselect Approved Novelty Winner. The word "coruscate" means to sparkle or shimmer, which is exactly what Corusco Cream-Red coreopsis will do in your garden with masses of mahogany-centered, bright cream-colored flowers that show up as early as 75 days from sowing. Tidy dome-shaped, 8-10 in. plants are heat and drought-tolerant, and demand very little from us to thrive. We welcome such an exciting new coreopsis, and pollinators like bees and butterflies will also welcome its addition to garden containers, walkway edges, or any sunny spot that could use some sparkle.
