Coreopsis
'Full Moon'
Big Bang Series
Tickseed
zones 5-9

Description: After eight years of intensive breeding
work with eight species of coreopsis, Darrell Probst is releasing the first
plant in his Big Bang (TM) Series. 'Full Moon' is a showy hybrid with very

are held on well-branched stems atop a mound of healthy green, medium
textured foliage. The plants are long blooming, from about midsummer into
early fall. This is one of the taller kinds of coreopsis, so it is best
situated towards the middle of the flower border. |
