sand coreopsis

Sand Coreopsis is a bright and cheerful perennial that lights up the garden with masses of golden-yellow, daisy-like flowers from late spring into summer. Its finely textured, lance-shaped foliage stays attractive even when not in bloom, and it’s highly adaptable, drought-tolerant, and low-maintenance. Its compact size (1 to 2 feet) can be attractive for those who are avoiding taller, more dominating wildflowers. Sand Coreopsis will often re-bloom throughout most of the growing season, after its main blooming period. Ideal for pollinator gardens, meadows, borders, and naturalized landscapes, this sun-loving beauty brings long-lasting color and effortless charm to any planting.

This popular wildflower is native to our region and also goes by another common name of Lanceleaf Coreopsis.
