Enjoy consistent, bold color during the summer with the Darling Clementine Tickseed. Orange-petaled flowers have feathered tips and are 3 inches in diameter. This plant makes a colorful statement and does well with minimal effort. Also known as Coreopsis LI'L BANG™ 'Darling Clementine', this perennial features thin, medium-green foliage near the base of the plant.
The Darling Clementine Tickseed is disease resistant, making it a good plant for inexperienced gardeners. Plant this beauty in beds, borders, or mass plantings. Cut the stems to feature the flowers in arrangements. This Coreopsis attracts pollinators but is deer resistant and can generally live in challenging conditions that many other plants cannot handle.
Darling Clementine Tickseed Care
Plant the Darling Clementine Tickseed in full to partial sun in average, well-drained soil. Established plants have medium water needs, and a layer of mulch will retain moisture and help the plants thrive. Feed the Darling Clementine Tickseed using a single dose of fertilizer each spring to help the plant push out new growth at the start of the growing season.
Tickseed is an herbaceous perennial, so while it will come back year after year, all of the growth dies back in the fall. Leave the basal foliage in place over the winter to protect the roots from cold weather; clear away dead growth in the spring when new leaves emerge. Divide the plant every few years if it outgrows its current home.
Darling Clementine Tickseed Spacing
The large flowers of the Darling Clementine Tickseed sit on top of thin stems. This plant will grow 8 to 10 inches tall and wide. Space plants 10 inches apart to create a dense planting.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
