    I got my Zepherine 2 years ago from my neighbour-she bought it on a sale.It looked pretty sorry in a small pot with just a few leaves covered in black spots.I dug up a hole for it,put a few handfuls of bone meal on the bottom and firmed the soil around.I pruned it quite heavily(about an inch of old stems left).Next year I had 5 "leader" shoots about 4' long each.This year it was shredded by rabbits but I can see new shoots appearing already.

      Well that sound promising coreopsis! Now I've just got to locate a supplier.

        Yep and there is one in Farnborough too.

        Plants at Wilkinson's you have to buy quite soon once they are in stock, as they don't seem to have a plant care system.

        Whilst in Farnborough you could also check out B&Q's offer: £3.48 per rose or 3 for £10. As these plants are already outside and watered, then you don't have the same issue of buying from a Wilkinson's.
