Description
Coreopsis rosea 'Sweet Dreams', rhizomatous perennial with light and airy foliage, forms a bushy shrub, spreading rapidly to create a magnificent ground cover. Throughout summer and into autumn, it produces a profusion of cream-white heads with dark raspberry-red centres, gradually becoming entirely raspberry pink over time. Truly stunning!
Coreopsis rosea 'Sweet Dreams' grows 45 cm (18in) tall with a spread of 60 cm (24in). It forms a dense, bushy shrub. Its delicate, fern-like foliage is finely cut and light, providing an airy and decorative appearance. Extremely floriferous, it continuously produces beautiful large bicolour heads from June to September, cream-white with dark raspberry-red centres. As the season progresses, the raspberry pink colour develops more prominently and the cream-white almost disappears. Under optimal growing conditions, this Coreopsis will spread through its rhizomes to create a large, dense, and colourful ground cover.
This vigorous, hardy, and very easy variety thrives in full sun, in fertile, well-drained to moist soil. It will be a beautiful addition to borders, flower beds, mixed borders, and rock gardens, thanks to its long and abundant white and raspberry flowering. It will be the perfect companion for perennial plants, shrub roses, and ornamental grasses. It can be paired with shrubby salvias, paniculate phlox, gauras, asters, and knautias. It will also look stunning when planted in pots on the patio, where the spectacle of its flowering will be unmatched! Its flowers will make splendid bouquets with changing colours.

Planting and care
The 'Sweet Dreams' Pink Coreopsis is a hardy plant that can tolerate limestone and thrives in sunny locations. It can grow in soils that are more or less fertile, as long as they are well-drained, especially in winter. However, it does not tolerate stagnant water, so it is essential to avoid poorly drained, clayey, and heavy soils. If you have such soil, you can add sand and gravel to lighten it. This Coreopsis is effortless to cultivate and requires very little maintenance. It spreads through rootstocks, so you can divide it every 2-3 years to rejuvenate the shrub and prevent it from spreading too much.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
