About This Plant
Coreopsis 'Leading Lady Sophia' (Tickseed), 'Leading Lady Sophia', is valued for seasonal interest and the role it plays in PNW garden borders.
Tickseeds (Coreopsis) are cheerful prairie perennials with daisy-like yellow, orange, pink, or red flowers all summer. Tough drought-tolerant.
Full sun suits this species. Plant in well-drained soil. Hardy USDA Zone 4 to 9. Deadhead for prolonged bloom. Drought-tolerant once established.
For a Pacific Northwest native perennial of similar character, consider Aquilegia formosa (Western Red Columbine), Tellima grandiflora (Fringecups), or Dicentra formosa (Pacific Bleeding Heart) , all support native pollinators.
