Use the plant water needs as a guideline. Actual plant water needs will vary for several reasons, including weather conditions, soil type, sun exposure, root depth, wind and elevation. Adjust your watering schedule as needed to meet the plants' needs at your site. Water recent transplants more often than established plants.

Sunray coreopsis is mounding perennial flower with narrow, dark green leaves. Bright yellow, 2-inch, double flowers are produced on slender stems above the compact, tidy mound of leaves.
Sunray coreopsis is different from other coreopsis in that the plants are shorter and more compact, and the flowers are double. It is a reliable, long-blooming plant for the Colorado Springs area.
Sunray coreopsis has been a good perennial flower at the Xeriscape Garden. It is a reliable bloomer and winter hardy.
After an individual flower has finished blooming, cut the flower stalk back to a set of leaves. This practice will prolong the blooming period and improve the plant's appearance. Cut plant to ground level in late winter or early spring.
