Coreopsis palmata

Prairie Coreopsis (Coreopsis palmata) is a hardy perennial native to prairies and open woodlands, typically growing up to 2 feet tall. It thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade, and prefers medium to dry soils, making it well-suited for drought-prone areas. The plant forms clumps with spreading rhizomes and features bright yellow blooms from June through August. Prairie Coreopsis is low-maintenance, requiring little supplemental water once established, and is valued for its adaptability and resilience in native plant gardens.
