The variety 'Mahagony Midget' is a true rarity among Coreopsis varieties due to its uniquely bright rusty-red flowers with a brownish-yellow eye. In Germany, this open-pollinated variety is not well known, yet it is very beautiful and versatile.
'Mahagony Midget' is a great continuous bloomer for flower beds and also grows wonderfully in containers or balcony boxes. As a cut flower, it enhances any colourful summer bouquet.
