Re: mystery coreopsis


Oh, that would be exciting. I know it looks bluish next to "Moonbeam" but
I don't know if it would on its own. Will have to wait til next spring to
find out. 
I think I'll get a "Zagreb" to grow next to it for comparison. I'll post
it if I find out anything interesting. Thanks!
