Plains Coreopsis illuminates the garden or meadow with fantastic clusters of yellow and red daisy-like flowers. Plains Coreopsis is used primarily for landscape beautification but it also makes a great cut flower. Plains Coreopsis is a tremendously resilient wildflower that can grow in just about any region and most soil conditions. A very generous bloomer, Plains Coreopsis is a staple of virtually any meadow garden. The flowers are bright yellow with mahogany-red centers. Plains Coreopsis is great for cutting and each stem adds a whole flush of small flowers to arrangements.
