Notes
'Full Moon' tickseed (Coreopsis 'Full Moon') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average soil of most types. Butterflies and bees visit the blooms, which open in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. It also handles dry spells well.
Pairs well with Coneflower, Blanket flower, Lavender, and Little bluestem.
