Coreopsis Moonbeam #1

Common Name: Threadleaf Coreopsis

1992 Perennial Plant Association Plant of the Year.

A classic perennial, ‘Moonbeam’ is an excellent performer with bright lemon-yellow flowers produced in profusion from early through late summer. The airy clumps of fine, needle-like foliage on upright stems add a nice fine texture element to the landscape.

Coreopsis is one of the easiest perennials to maintain and is a good choice for beginners. It compliments nearly every other plant in the garden. The verticillata species is particularly long-lived, has a longer flowering time, and demonstrates better drought tolerance than others in the genus.
