Bring a burst of sunshine to your garden with Goldenmane Tickseed (Coreopsis basalis), also known as Golden Wave Tickseed. This stunning, bushy annual plant thrives in sandy soils and full sunlight, making it an ideal choice for low-maintenance gardens. Adorned with captivating yellow blooms, each highlighted with a striking maroon center, it dazzles from mid-summer to fall, attracting butterflies with its mild fragrance.

Goldenmane Tickseed's drought tolerance makes it perfect for xeriscapes, meadows, and butterfly gardens. It can also be a delightful addition to container gardens. Known for its versatility, this coreopsis self-sows moderately, ensuring its presence in the garden year after year. For optimal results, consider dividing mature plants every few years to rejuvenate and enhance flowering.

Native to the southern United States, Coreopsis basalis prefers upland sandy soils and is ideal for beautifying pine plantations and fields. Its well-branched, erect form reaches heights of 8-14 inches with a spread of 12 inches. Deer-resistant and easy to grow, the Goldenmane Tickseed is a gardener's delight!
