Re: Pink Coreopsis

I have had coreopsis verticillata 'rosea' in a fairly shady area for about 4
years now, and have not been happy with it.  Short and not many blooms.
Reading this (I thank you!) I am thinking that I need to move it to the
sunny side of the bed instead of just pitching it.
I have also used Bluestone for several years, and have been very pleased.
The economical size plants are definitely smaller, but of excellent quality
and catch up quickly.  I have not seen near as good a value anywhere else.
