Lanceleaf coreopsis is a native wildflower in the Asteraceae (daisy) family that typically grows to 2' tall and occurs in prairies, glades, fields, and roadsides.

It prefers full sun with moist, well-drained soil but can sprawl if grown in too fertile soil. It thrives in sandy and rocky soils and can be an aggressive self-seeder. Deadheading of spent flowers will help control self-seeding and encourage additional blooms. Division may be needed every 2-3 years to maintain robustness. They can be cut back hard if they become too sprawling.

Use this plant in naturalized areas, meadows, native/pollinator gardens or any area where they can spread.

Lanceleaf coreopsis is resistant to deer, drought, heat and humidity.

Host plant for the Wavy-Lined Emerald and the Dimorphic Gray Moth as well as the Silvery Checkerspot Butterfly.
