Prairie Coreopsis
Coreopsis Palmata
Overview
Prairie Coreopsis (Coreopsis palmata) thrives in sun-soaked prairies, reaching 1.5-2 feet in height. Its bright yellow flowers, 1-2 inches across, bloom from June to August. With a clumping habit and deeply lobed leaves, this perennial's taproot makes it drought-tolerant, ideal for well-drained soils. It's a pollinator magnet, providing nectar for bees and butterflies, enhancing biodiversity in gardens. Zones 3-8 suit its hardiness.
