Texas native annual flower seed
Crown Tickseed
A warm yellow-and-burgundy annual Coreopsis with fine foliage and long-blooming garden color.
Crown Tickseed brings the colors of a tiny painted sun to the garden—golden petals gathered around a deep burgundy center. This Texas-native annual likes full sun, handles comparatively dry conditions, and works beautifully in drifts, pollinator plantings, and warm-climate wildflower combinations.
