Owning a dog, especially a big dog will almost always keep deer from approaching your home. Just the scent of the dog will keep most deer away, and if your dog lives outside you will probably never see any deer.
Enjoy brilliant reds and yellows all season long with this cold-hardy, disease-resistant, long-blooming dwarf Coreopsis! The latest series from master hybridizer Darrell Probst, Li'l Bang™ Coreopsis share the same vibrant colors and exceptional disease resistance as the Big Bang™ series, but on compact plants that tend to bloom a little earlier in the season. The product of 10 years of intensive breeding involving 8 different species of Coreopsis, these revolutionary hybrids only improve on the cold-, heat-, and drought-tolerance of the native Coreopsis!
Not only is 'Enchanted Eve' painted bright scarlet and gold, but it is also incredibly rewarding and easy to grow. For one thing it is truly cold hardy, surviving down to -20 degrees without damage. Secondly, it is highly disease resistant, displaying no disease problems in trials. Even pests and deer generally leave it alone. Third, it is very long-blooming, starting early and setting blooms all the way into fall. Perfect for beginners, this lovely Coreopsis sets months and months of brilliant blooms while asking for precious little in return.
Plant 'Enchanted Eve' in a sunny spot with good drainage. It will tolerate light shade and is not picky about soil type. Coreopsis has relatively low water needs, and once established it becomes conveniently drought tolerant.
'Enchanted Eve' is the perfect way to fill out the front of a border with dazzling color, and the blooms are great little bursts of color in cutflower arrangements. And best of all, the more you cut, the more 'Enchanted Eve' reblooms! Zones 5 to 9.
