Coreopsis verticillata 'Zagreb'
Choose Zagreb Tickseed for sunny, lean planting areas where you want a tidy mound with a long yellow bloom run. The tradeoff: it is not a shade plant and will struggle in wet, heavy soil.
Buy This If
- You want bright summer color.
- Your site drains well.
- You prefer a compact perennial.
Skip This If
- The bed stays soggy.
- You need height.
- The spot is mostly shade.
PGNE Report Card
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B+ | The fine foliage and long yellow bloom period give strong color without taking over the bed. |
| Growth Rate | A- | It fills in quickly for a perennial and is useful when you do not want to wait years for coverage. |
| Maintenance | B+ | It asks for little once established, though trimming spent flowers keeps it looking cleaner. |
| Deer Resistance | B+ | Deer tend to leave this alone, though hungry deer may sample it where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | A | Its compact habit works well along walks, bed edges, and smaller sunny gardens. |
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Zagreb Tickseed for hot, open beds with sharp drainage, especially where customers want color without a tall plant. Avoid planting it where runoff collects.
