These vivid, yellow flowers almost glow in the sunlight, against their dark green foliage. They are easy to grow & make a fantastic choice for prairie planting, a butterfly garden, or even as cut flowers. This wildflower’s common name of tickseed comes from the resemblance of the seeds to that particular bug; the genus name Coreopsis, derived from the Greek koris, makes a similar reference to bedbugs. Hardiness & love of dry soil make the flowers in this family especially valuable to citizens of the state of Florida, who appointed Coreopsis as their official state wildflower in 1991.
