50 Dwarf Coreopsis Seeds | Heirloom Non-GMO Wildflower for Pollinator Gardens

Dwarf Coreopsis is a compact, easy-to-grow wildflower prized for its cheerful, daisy-like blooms. This heirloom, non-GMO variety brings a bright splash of color to borders, rock gardens, and meadow plantings, and it is an excellent choice for pollinator-friendly landscapes. Its shorter stature makes it well-suited to the front of the garden bed or container growing.

Plants form tidy mounds of fine, green foliage that become covered with golden-yellow flowers through the summer. The nectar-rich blooms attract bees and butterflies, while the long-lasting flowers also work well as cut flowers. Dwarf Coreopsis is a dependable perennial in suitable climates and returns year after year with minimal care.

Planting & Care

Sow Dwarf Coreopsis seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover deeply, as light aids germination. Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge, which typically takes 14 to 21 days at 65 to 70°F. Once seedlings have a few sets of true leaves, thin or transplant them to their final spacing.

Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help plants establish, then reduce watering as they become drought tolerant. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. In colder zones, apply a light mulch in late fall to protect the crown. Divide clumps every few years to maintain vigor.
