Those are so pretty, and unfortunately I didnt' take the opportunity to buy a couple of them last year at Lowes , when they had them. This year , thinking about buying a couple of those, I checked to see if they had them again this year, and of course NOT!!!

They are very pretty. I had to give up on the threadleaf coreopsis. They just don't like my alkaline soil!.

Actually when they were first sold a couple years back, they were sold as a perennial in this area. Needless to say, I planted a few in the ground and they never came back. Now they are marketed as a "temperennial". Still, its an annual here. Too bad, because its a gourgeous plant/flower!!!!!! :wub:

Temperennial.....i love that! :lol: i've never heard of these plants before today. they're a real eye-popper! thanks for sharing!

Last year Lowes sold them as a perennial here. I'm glad to hear they aren't very hardy because I thought i did something wrong. ^_^ Beautiful while blooming but I don't think I would have paid so much for 3 annuals. -_-
