One of Our
Favorite Plants:

Early Sunrise Coreopsis

Perennial

This bright plant loves full sun and is fairly heat tolerant. It also offers brilliant long-lasting color.

It grows up to 24 inches (60 cm) tall, and up to 26 inches (65 cm) wide.

Hardy to USDA Zone 5, which means it can take an average annual temperature no lower than minus 20° to minus 10° Faranheight.

So if your area drops below minus 20° at any time of the year, you may want to treat this plant more as an annual.
