Ma nā wahi a pau āu e nānā ai ma Georgia, e hoʻomālamalama ana nā coreopsis i nā ʻaoʻao alanui. ʻAʻohe mea ʻokoʻa inā he ala nui a i ʻole he ala ʻāina liʻiliʻi.

Inā ʻaʻole lawa kēlā, e noʻonoʻo i ka hoʻi ʻana o nā mea kanu i ka makahiki aʻe.
ʻO Early Sunrise, ka mea lanakila i ka Medal Gold Medal All America Selections, he paʻakikī i ke anu i ka ʻāpana 4, a he ʻae wela, e ulu ana ma ka ʻāpana 9. He hoʻomanawanui hoʻi i ka maloʻo, a paʻakikī ke kanu ʻia ma kou ʻaoʻao alanui. ʻO kēia kekahi o nā perennials maikaʻi loa no ka māla hoʻomaka e hōʻoiaʻiʻo ana i ka manamana lima ʻōmaʻomaʻo.
ʻO ka paena kūleʻa maikaʻi loa i ka lā piha, ʻoiai ua ʻike au i nā hōʻike hōʻikeʻike i ka lā kakahiaka a me ka malu o ke ahiahi. Inā loaʻa kahi koi koi, pono ka lepo i hoʻokahe maikaʻi ʻia.
