Key Characteristics
Description / Coreopsis Big Bang™ 'Enchanted Red'
Ever since new colors began to be introduced into the Coreopsis family several years ago, we have been looking for a truly exceptional red: cold hardy, color fast, and vigorous. What we didn't expect was to find one that also sports a new habit!
'Enchanted Red' is the latest in breeder Darrell Probst's amazing Big Bang™ series and for our money it breaks new ground in a big way. It actually spreads, intertwining with its neighbors beautifully in the border! Just 15 to 18 inches high in bloom, it spreads 2 to 3 feet wide, with fresh green foliage backing the flowers.
Now, about those flowers. They begin about 1½ inches wide and then keep growing as they mature! And they arise all summer, very eye catching in bold perfect red. The small center is frilly and bright golden yellow, punctuating the rich petals beautifully. You will be delighted not only with the quality but with the number of these blooms, over a very long season. Prepare to be dazzled!
'Enchanted Red' is hardy with excellent vigor and color-fastness. Mildew-free, it attracts butterflies and bees. Make it part of your sunny border this season, and begin enjoying one of the most remarkable new perennials in the world today!
