Coreopsis tinctoria

Incredible red and yellow flowers stand out in any garden. A beautiful flower for dying. Low, bush-like plants are great fillers in the garden. Transplants well for an early start. Flowers abundantly for weeks and weeks!

Flowers can be used for ecoprinting and for solid dye both fresh and dried. Pick them all season to dry for fall and winter projects - the more you pick the more flowers you get!
