Coreopsis Tickseed

Coreopsis, or Tickseed, is a genus of flowering plants native to North and
South America. There are over 100 species available and countless hybrids,
including annuals and perennials. They are admired for their vibrant,
daisy-like flowers and ease of care.

In Washington State, the only truly native tickseed is Plains Coreopsis (Coreopsis tinctoria), also known as Golden or Columbia Tickseed. It is an annual or biennial wildflower that naturally grows in seasonally moist, open, and disturbed areas, mostly east of the Cascades and along the lower 

Columbia River.
