Coreopsis tinctoria, dwarf -- Tickseed
Color: Yellow, Maroon
Height: 18-24 inches
These easy to grow annuals are a great addition to any informal garden. They reseed well and your seed eating backyard birds will love this plant. Plant in full sun. Coreopsis do have a tendency to get blown over and do not do well in windy conditions. The soil should be well drained and be moderate to poor fertility. Coreopsis are relatively drought tolerant. Sow seed in the spring, after the last frost.
