Terra Nova Nurseries gives a sneak peek of Coreopsis, Echinacea Best Performer

Terra Nova Nurseries has revealed a sneak peek of Coreopsis NOVA® 'Opal' and spotlighted the best performer Echinacea KISMET® 'Pink Lemonade.' The coreopsis features sweet, whisper-pink flowers with a coral eye. The best-performing echinacea has become widely popular for its award-winning KISMET features.

Coreopsis NOVA 'Opal' has a low and tight growth habit, and it blooms from June through October. This perennial prefers full sun and average, well-drained soil, presenting strong landscape value in mixed beds, containers, borders, and mass plantings. It also serves as a lovely accent plant. NOVA 'Opal' is deer-resistant and a powerful pollinator attractor.

Terra Nova recommends allowing this variety to dry moderately between waterings for greenhouse growing. Finishing growers can expect the finish time from a liner to a 4-inch pot to be four to six weeks. Finish time from a liner to a 1-gallon pot is six to eight weeks. The new coreopsis variety grows most actively in the spring, reaching a height of 12", a width of 16", and a flower height of 14". Its USDA Hardiness Zones are 5-10.

Echinacea KISMET 'Pink Lemonade' is truly one of a kind with its unusually bright pink flowers and lemonade-colored petal tips. This perennial grows fast with an upright, mounding habit. It makes for a beautiful addition to mixed beds or borders and lasts long in the summer, blooming June through October. 'Pink Lemonade' prefers full sun, requires low-water usage, and attracts hummingbirds and pollinators with its fragrant flowers.

The finish time from a liner to a 4-inch pot for 'Pink Lemonade' is six to eight weeks; the finish time from a liner to a 1-gallon pot is 12 to 14 weeks. Finishing growers should allow this variety to dry moderately between waterings in the greenhouse. 'Pink Lemonade' will grow to a height of 14", width of 12" and a flower height of 18". USDA Hardiness Zones are 4-9.
