Coreopsis Moonbeam     
Perennial Plant of the Year 1992.
A useful 'filler' plant for a busy summer border the plant naturally makes an attractive, wiry, dark green mound of threadleaf foliage which creates a superb background for the masses of single, pale yellow daisies that stud it from mid-summer to early autumn. These blooms are attractive to bees, an important pollinator in the garden. Attracts butterflies as well! Always a top seller! One of the easiest and most popular perennials.
Very hardy and reliable. A thickly clump forming plant. Mass planting will insure vigorous, fresh color for months with little care, except for watering during the driest periods. Full sun, to part shade, in well-drained soil with regular watering. Extensive root system useful for erosion control. Considered deer resistant when mature. One of the top ten perennials to have in your garden!
