Description
Coreopsis Tinctoria, or golden tickseed, is a striking annual-to-perennial bloomer for sunny spots in Massachusetts. Native to the southern U.S. but widely naturalized, it produces masses of golden-yellow flowers with bold maroon centers throughout the season. Coreopsis Tinctoria is ideal for meadows, cutting gardens, and tough soil conditions, even those with poor drainage.
With its finely divided foliage and upright form, this tickseed adds height and energy to pollinator plantings and wildflower gardens. It performs beautifully in full sun and spreads easily, creating dazzling displays that attract bees and butterflies. Coreopsis Tinctoria is an essential choice for low-maintenance, high-impact garden design in Massachusetts.
