Coreopsis rose 'Tinkerbell Red'

Coreopsis rosea 'Tinkerbell Red' is a perennial herbaceous plant of high ornamental value, producing numerous vivid reddish-purple flowers on delicate leaves.

Growth Characteristics
- Plant Morphology: It is a perennial herbaceous plant that grows in a clump form; the stems are slender and appear upright or slightly spreading.
- Size: At maturity, the plant height is approximately 30–40 cm, making it relatively low and suitable for the front of flower beds.
- Leaves: The leaves are slender and nearly linear, with a bright green color that highlights the flower color.
- Flowers: Blooming from summer to early autumn, it is characterized by reddish-purple ray florets with a dark center and red edges.

Propagation Methods
- Seeds: Sow in the spring. Due to its low cold requirement, direct sowing in the open field or transplanting after seedling cultivation is possible.
- Division: It can be stably propagated by dividing the clumps in spring or autumn. Cultivation Method
- Soil: Prefers well-drained sandy loam or soil rich in humus.
- Sunlight: Flowering volume and color expression are best in full sun.
- Watering: Ensure the soil does not dry out during the early growth stage, and avoid excessive moisture after establishment.
- Care: Appropriate basal fertilization is suitable rather than excessive fertilization. Removing cut flowers after blooming improves bloom persistence.

Utilization in Gardens

- Highly useful for color accent planting due to the contrast between bright green leaves and red flowers.

Major Pests and Diseases & Control Methods
- Diseases: Root rot may occur if there is excessive moisture.
