Description
The Coreopsis lanceolata 'Walter' is a small plant with lanceolate leaves that blooms brightly in the summer. Its compact habit makes it easy to grow in a sunny flowerbed or border and it's also a hardy plant that can be used as ground cover in tough spots. This plant is undemanding and can thrive in well-drained soil.
The Coreopsis lanceolata 'Walter' is derived from the species Coreopsis lanceolata, a tufted perennial. It is a reliable plant that brightens flowerbeds in the summer with its compact habit and abundant flowering. This plant produces bright yellow flowers with brown spots and an orange centre that bloom repeatedly on the plant throughout the summer. Its deep green foliage is narrow, lanceolate, and shiny, gathered in tufts that garnish its stems.
Perennial coreopsis plants require full sun to flower well and they like a light, porous, gravelly or sandy soil that is well-drained. These plants are low maintenance and easy to care for. The Coreopsis lanceolata 'Walter' is a versatile plant and can be used in many ways, such as in a rockery, on a slope with wallflowers, love-in-a-mist, and wild flax, or in an herbaceous border with Teucrium chamaedrys or x lucidrys, thyme, and cotton lavenders. It can also be grown in a pot and needs very little water. The plant is also suitable for small summer bouquets.
Did you know? The flowers of Coreopsis tinctoria contain pigments that produce a beautiful and stable yellow-orange dye. Other species also contain them, but in lesser concentrations.

Planting and care
The Coreopsis lanceolata is a plant that needs well-drained soil with a sandy or rocky texture and lots of sunlight. It's best to avoid heavy and wet soil, as this can cause the plant to behave like an annual instead of a perennial. To keep the plant healthy, it's recommended to divide the clumps every three years and prune the foliage in September before winter.
Perennial coreopsis plants don't like winter moisture or heavy soil. They need full sunlight, even in hot weather, to produce the best flowers. They grow well in light, porous soil that's slightly acidic, neutral, or slightly chalky and always well-drained. They can also adapt to poor soil conditions. If the soil is moist and rich in humus, they can still thrive if the drainage is perfect. Removing faded flowers, especially at the end of August, can encourage the plant to rebloom. This plant is easy to care for and highly rewarding.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
