Crazy Cayenne Coreopsis (Coreopsis verticillata 'Crazy Cayenne' SIZZLE & SPICE® Series) is a perfectly rounded mound of intense fiery orange flowers that will add a vibrant 'pop' of colour to your garden. The sunset-shaded petals have a bright, reddish-orange colour that is concentrated in the centre, with golden yellow on the undersides. The dome of this Orange Coreopsis' fine-textured, green foliage is blanketed in blooms. An excellent choice for attracting bees and butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators to the garden.
Orange Tickseed is a low-maintenance, easy to grow perennial, preferring sunny spots and is tolerant of dry to average soils. Terrific for borders, mass plantings and container growing. Cut the blooms and bring them inside to enjoy! Deer resistant and pollinator friendly, Crazy Cayenne Coreopsis will make your garden 'sizzle' with colour all summer long.
The Sizzle and Spice Coreopsis series was bred for their compact, domed habits, and brightly coloured, long-blooming flowers. Also check out 'Hot Paprika' (red) and 'Zesty Zinger' (magenta/white) from this series!
