Coreopsis tripteris | tall coreopsis
The tall upright plants of Coreopsis tripteris add architectural interest to large gardens or meadows with rich green foliage ascending on sturdy stems that can reach over 7 feet tall. In late summer, plants are capped with loose clusters of skyward facing cheerful yellow blooms that move in the wind. A favorite of pollinators and birds, these stately yet casual plants are great for adding drama to the naturalistic garden. Foliage can take on a beautiful coppery-red hue in fall.
