Deep sultry blooms on tall stems, Li'L Bang™ Red Elf Tickseed (Coreopsis x 'Red Elf'), also known to many as Coreopsis, is a sunny, heat-loving native wildflower! The Li'L Bang series are long-blooming, drought tolerant and disease resistant, fearless little perennial! These easy-to-grow flowers are called Li'L Bang™ for good reason!
Dark, burgundy-red flowers with gleaming yellow centers call pollinators and butterflies from far and wide while soaking up the sun! Blooming in early summer, the daisy-like petals are pleated and lightly toothed. Each with a shimmery sheen. With a frosted touch of white towards the petal edges during the hottest part of the season.
Even when not in flower, they are a beautiful, healthy mound of green foliage. Finely cut leaves and long deep lobes emerge a bit later in the spring but last dauntlessly until hard frost. The fresh color and delicate foliage are the perfect backdrops for the bold blooms to follow.
Compact, rounded mounds valiantly tolerate sweltering sunny, hot dry garden beds. Coreopsis are truly North American natives, and as such, bloom with carefree abandon almost anywhere you plant them in the US. The more you cut, the more they bloom, so keep your vases full and your pollinators will be full too! They bloom from spring through summer and all the way into the fall.
