About this plant
Coreopsis verticillata 'Moonbeam' is a highly popular and reliable perennial, celebrated for its airy, fern-like foliage and an abundance of soft, lemon-yellow daisy-like flowers that bloom profusely from early summer through fall. Its compact, mounding habit makes it an excellent choice for borders, rock gardens, or mass plantings, providing continuous color and texture. 'Moonbeam' is particularly valued for its extended blooming period, virtually carefree nature, and ability to thrive in various conditions. This cultivar is a true garden workhorse, attracting beneficial pollinators while resisting deer, making it a fantastic addition to any landscape seeking long-lasting beauty with minimal effort.
