9 SIZZLER COREOPSIS

Prefers full sun. Needs at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily to maintain a dense flowering habit. Thrives on sunny patios, garden beds, and edging locations.

Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry. Drought-tolerant once established, but benefits from regular moisture during prolonged dry spells. Avoid overly wet conditions—well-draining soil is key to healthy roots.

Soil Thrives in well-draining, moderately fertile soil. Adaptable to sandy, loamy, or average garden soil; blooms best in lighter substrates. In containers, use a high-quality potting mix with sufficient drainage holes. Fertilizer Feed sparingly for sustained flowering. Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer or compost in early spring. Too much fertility may promote leggy growth and reduce bloom density. Humidity Adapts to a range of humidity levels. Ensure good air circulation to reduce the risk of fungal issues. Even in humid climates, deadheading spent blooms keeps plants tidy and encourages reblooming. Bloom & Seasonal Notes Blooms continuously from early summer into fall, offering nonstop color. Bright yellow flowers attract bees and butterflies, supporting pollinator gardens. Compact size (around 9‑inch pot habit) suits containers, edging, and tight garden spaces. Planting & Maintenance Tips Planting time: Best planted in spring or early fall to establish well. Spacing: For garden beds, allow 10–12 inches between plants for a full mound and airflow. Deadheading: Regular removal of spent flowers extends the bloom period. Pruning: After the first flush of blooms, cut back by one-third to encourage a second flower cycle.
