With its delicate petals and vibrant colors, it's no wonder why this small rose-colored Coreopsis, Coreopsis rosea, has become a favorite subject for artists. But tickseed doesn't stop at being just a pretty face. Take the Giant Coreopsis (Coreopsis gigantea) for example. This magnificent flower can be found on Zapato Islet, where it stands tall and proud inside the crater. Its golden yellow petals contrast beautifully against the blue sky, creating a breathtaking sight. In the United States, tickseed is widely celebrated for its beauty and versatility. The Coreopsis genus encompasses various species like Coreopsis verticillata with its charming yellow blooms that add a pop of color to any garden or landscape. These cheerful flowers are often seen swaying in the summer breeze. One cannot overlook the Purple Coneflower either; another native American species that belongs to the coreopsis family. Standing tall with its vibrant purple petals and prominent cone-shaped center, this flower attracts bees and butterflies alike. Whether it's through Victorian botanical illustrations or simply admiring their natural beauty in gardens across America, tickseeds continue to captivate our hearts with their enchanting presence. From delicate roses hues to bold yellows and purples - these flowers bring joy wherever they bloom.
