At the farmer's market I couldn't resist getting a tickseed from a local nursery grower. I was familiar with the usual yellow blossoms of tickseed but this new variety, redshift tickseed, caught my eye. Tickseed loves sun, has fern like leaves, grows about two feet tall and is hardy to -20 F. The multi-colored blooms are a delight to the eye. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
Not a plant I know. And one I will try and track down. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteCaptain Google says I do know it - as coreopsis.
DeleteHi Sue, thanks, I think it is threadleaf coreopsis, but the variegated flowers are a winner in the garden I hope.
DeleteThose flowers really look beautiful. I have never seen them here in Hawaii.
ReplyDeleteHi Gigi, thanks, I've only seen them in the yellow color, I think this is a new variety.
ReplyDeleteWe love coreopsis but the one you have here, I have never seen before. I don't blame you, I would have gotten it too!
