Coreopsis Solar Moon Perennial Plants

Coreopsis Solar Moon – Hardy Yellow Tickseed Perennial

Coreopsis Solar Moon is a stunning hardy herbaceous perennial that produces an abundance of golden yellow, daisy-like flowers from early summer right through to autumn. Offering months of continuous, repeat-flowering colour, this cheerful tickseed is one of the most rewarding sun-loving perennials for any garden setting.

Thriving in a full sun position and well-drained soil — including dry and sandy conditions — Coreopsis Solar Moon is an outstanding drought-tolerant garden plant that requires very little upkeep. Its compact, mound-forming habit makes it ideal for borders, beds, cottage garden settings, mixed plantings, rockeries, edging, ground cover, or container planting on patios and outdoor spaces.

As a pollinator-friendly perennial, it attracts bees and butterflies to the garden, making it a wonderful wildlife-friendly choice. Easy to grow and low maintenance, this variety is perfect for beginner gardeners and experienced growers alike.
