Care Tips

To ensure the success of your Coreopsis 'Ruby Frost' plant, follow these care guidelines:

1. Planting

Choose a location in your garden that receives full sun to partial shade. Prepare the soil by removing any weeds or debris and incorporate organic matter to improve drainage. Dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball, place the plant in the hole, and backfill with soil. Water thoroughly after planting.

2. Watering

Coreopsis 'Ruby Frost' is relatively drought-tolerant, but regular watering is required, especially during hot and dry periods. Water deeply once or twice a week to ensure the roots receive sufficient moisture. Avoid overwatering, as it may lead to root rot.

3. Pruning

Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming throughout the season. Trimming back the plant by one-third in late summer can promote reblooming and prevent self-seeding.

4. Fertilization

Feed your Coreopsis 'Ruby Frost' plant with a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the appropriate dosage. Avoid excessive use of nitrogen-rich fertilizers, as it can result in excessive foliage growth at the expense of flower production.
