Coreopsis verticillata 'Moonbeam'

[ height 2 ft., light yellow flowers, late spring - autumn, sun, clump former ]

Coreopsis TICKSEED Tolerant of various soils with good drainage. Relatively drought tolerant, they are easy to grow. All are long blooming. The much-in-demand C. verticilata 'Moonbeam', a PPA plant of the year, is simply one of the finest and longest blooming perennials, with pale yellow flowers on wiry herbaceous bushes. Plants can be cut or sheared back by 1/4 to 1/3 or more in midsummer to promote more bloom (massive dead-heading in effect).
