Coreopsis plant named ‘Promon’

Abstract

The present Coreopsis variety was created during a controlled plant breeding program. A compact and bushy growth habit is displayed. Attractive, yellow daisy-type inflorescences with a burgundy eye zone particularly during cooler growing conditions are formed. The dark green foliage coloration contrasts nicely with the blossom coloration. Excellent resistance to powdery mildew has been displayed during observations to date. The plant is a perennial and has been observed to be hardy to at least U.S.D.A. Hardiness Zone No. 5. The plant can be grown to advantage as attractive ornamentation in parks, gardens, and residential settings.
