The picture at 0:17 isn't that a cosmos?
2:00 – lol, that's not Coreopsis, that's Cosmos. Plains Coreposis rocks because you get 1.5 million seeds per pound, which is about $12 on Everwilde. At that price, you get 15x more seed compared to any other pound of wildflowers, short of common poppies (which you get 3 million per pound $4.00) but I don't like white purple poppies, the bulb on them is big and ugly. Coreopsis you get a huge amount of flowers per plant, it blooms long, and the dual red and yellow flower is eye catching.
