The bright yellow Tickseed or Coreopsis lanceolata brings sunshine to the garden. The flowers are a brilliant bright yellow that grow on tall slender single stems. Each plant has many blooms that start early June and last well into August. The plant can tolerate prolonged periods of moisture and drought. They grow well in sun to partial shade and in various soil types. I have Tickseed growing in several beds. The photo above is growing on the shoulder of the Rain Garden.
'Moonbean' Coreopsis has smaller flowers, lace like or fern like leaves, and grows in a clump. It is featured in a garden bed among vinca at the front of the house.
