Lights of Morden Coreopsis Mix

'Lights of Morden' Coreopsis Mix (Coreopsis lanceolata) - Another floral gem grown by Emil & Elsie Byrka of Morden, Manitoba. This Coreopsis variety, also a perennial, has typical golden blooms and some with a sun-burned red ring wrapping around the inner petals. This is the only Coreopsis Emil & Elsie have grown and it has bloomed brilliantly each season for over 30 years in the same location. (Zone 3b) Plants have responded very well to our Maritime climate.
