Cut Back Blue Coreopsis in Early Spring! #gardeningtips

It’s early Spring in the mid-Atlantic area of the U.S.A. and it’s a perfect time to prune our Blue Coreopsis shrub! Why? Blue Coreopsis blooms gorgeous blue flowers in Autumn, so pruning now avoids damaging flower buds and gives the shrub a boost.

It is not necessary to fertilize Blue Coreopsis, but we do spread a little Espoma PT18 Plant Tone, 18-Pound in early Spring to guarantee splendid blue flower clusters in Autumn! To learn more about fertilizing shrubs, click here.
