RE: Coreopsis Ruby

ouch!  I just bought 3 this spring expecting them to be perennial as
advertized (6.95 each or special 3/15.95).  I guess I'll have a followup
note for next spring as to whether or not they come back <wry smile>.
My other coreopsis have not self-seeded but the divisions have taken
beautifully and I thought the limerock ruby would be similar.  I will
hope...

It doesn't self-seed?  Man, the coreopsis that I have planted in the
past 
self-seeded like crazy...almost obnoxiously.  I've seen it in my
gardening 
catalogs and it looks beautiful!!!  I'd like to try it too.
