From Ken and Linda Smith of Ohio, comes this 1991 discovery... a dramatic variegated leaf coreopsis. C. 'Tequila Sunrise' forms a rosette of foliage to 1' wide. Each three lobed leaf is green surrounded by a dramatic creamy border. In fall when the nights cool, the entire clump takes on a delightful pink cast. From May through August, the clumps are topped with large 1" orange pinwheels that perch several inches above the foliage. Join the variegated plant craze!
