Coreopsis ‘Moonbeam’ is a selection from a hardy, resilient species
(Coreopsis verticillata) that inhabits open sunny places and dry, open
woods in the eastern half of North America. The species name,
verticillata, refers to the fine, needle-like leaves, and hints at
the thread-like appearance of the leaves. Each daisy-like flower is a work
of Nature’s finest art. Eight perfectly arranged petals radiate out from a
central disc to form a work of beauty. Not only are these gorgeous flowers
produced in huge quantities, but they also form in succession. The
incredible thing is that they will keep flowering even without much
attention.
